what year mustang do you have? most of the time to have the gauge face you have to have a calibrated 200mph speedometer, so you would have to buy the actual speedometer since they are what is calibrated for the speed. There is a speedometer gear that goes in the trans that has a certain amount of teeth for what axle ratio you have and turns a cable up to the speedometer, so you wouldn't have to change that at all.
