speedometer repair/refurbish

I was wondering if anyone has any experience with www.AutoInstruments.com . I am thinking of sending my gauges, clock and speedometer there to be refurbished. While based on my research they seem to be priced on the high side, they also appear to do the most thorough job with not only mechanical, but also cosmetic issues. There is a pretty nice article on some of their work in the Jan issue of Muscle Car Review. Plus another great thing is they do their own in-house plastic chroming.

Any comments? Other recommendations?

I haven't had any gauges done there, but they have done a couple of fuel tank senders for me and I was well pleased with the work. It was nice knowing how much gas was in the tank...

Plus they're only about 30 miles from me, so they were also convenient. I haven't been up there since they moved to Collinsville though- they were still in downtown Martinsville last time I picked up a sender.

Come to think of it, I do have a couple clocks that could stand fixing.

Their clock pricing was actually very reasonable. I was quoted $65 to repair the original clock, or only $85 to convert it to quartz. If you need the face redone, that would obviously be extra, but still not bad.
