Do you want to change how your speedo mounts, or do you just not like it chrome? Maybe you can have it powdercoated or painted to match your paint so it blends in.

If you want to swap to the Super Glide console like you posted, you will need to swap tanks. It is an easy swap, I swapped my WG tank to a SG tank and mounted a Dakota Digital on the bars.
Any EFI Dyna tank will bolt right up.
