Default Liquid filled speedo
What is the liquid that is used in the speedo? Mine in only 3 quaters full. Can it be filled and where do you get liquid?

glycerin. I think you can get it at a drug store. The face usually unscrews (take it out of the dash first) then fill it up.

I sent mine back to Lavorsi and they fixed and refilled. Seems it was less than $100 no more leaks
