I like it. Its far easier and cleaner (unless you forget to reconnect the oil pressure line!
) change a speedo than it is to remove the driveshaft, partially disassemble the tranny and swap gears.
It also saves MB from having to stock different transmissions or transmission parts for different rear end ratios.
