I am in need of a good speedometer for my Rabbit Diesel. The gears are broken and frozen on the odometer I have now. I also need a few other things if anyone is parting out a four door Rabbit. Here is a list of some other things I would like to buy.

The year of the Rabbit would help, and is the speedo cluster the rectangular style or the round style pods?

... and please put your location in your profile.
It's going to take a local to get you a headliner.
I don't think anyone will send something that big.
Me and a friend are parting out a couple 4 doors, one is blue but it's 100 miles from me.

Sorry, that is some important information I left out. I am located just outside of Birmingham, AL. The car I am working on is a 1981 LS. I was able to find a speedometer. Hopefully it will work as promised when I receive it. I just thought I would ask about the headliner. There might be someone within driving distance with one.

There's a fellow on ebay that puts stuff like the cluster on ebay every now and then. Seems to deal in various parts from junk yards; and changes the stuff often. I bought a bunch of stuff from him for my 81 and most of it arrived A-OK; but some I thought was a bit lacking in description; but was my fault for not clarifying first. If you want his email, advise and will send.

Use PM. I'm not subscribing to this thead.

If you don't find a used one that works, I never did. I can give you the address of the speedometer shop that rebuilt mine in CA. Let me know if you want it.

I might be interested. My speed died last winter, too.
My Rabbit is a '79, too, single dial / speed in cluster / am-only radio. Which version do you have?
