Well, that clears it up a little. I didn't put much thought into the cut-outs being at each 10 MPH. I've never torn apart the speedo, will this replace the actual faceplate that shows MPH's, or cover it and still show the #'s behind like the pics? How much are you looking at getting for them?

We can make them too. Yours looks like stainless. The problem with stainless is the nickel content, it will polish up nicely but will tend to dull and turn gray after time. I would recommend chrome plated steel and it will last and shine much longer. We have full machine shop services CNC, lasers, lathes, mills, grinders, glass beading and can make anything.

Skulls are ok, but not my overall cup of tea. Personally, I don't care for the design with half of the numbers showing behind the cutout (last photo). Either find a way to show the entire number, or cover the number completely.
Going even further, maybe find a way to do a cutout so that the number in the tens (10, 20, 30, etc) shows up through the cover. I think the little notches make it too hard to figure out how fast you are going when trying to run near the speed limits at 30 or 40 MPH. My concern would be at dusk or dark without much light illuminating the speedo.
