@carlnutaitis that's a good question! I suspect it's a gear in the transmission, but given that the speedometer mechanism operates on a balance of friction on one end and a spring on the other, it could also be something in that set-up as well. I guess I'll find out in the next several weeks if the grease helped or not!
@stevegiddens I just realized I never followed up on this. I am very, very happy with the results. I have about 6 hours or so into it total. I spend around 2.5 hours on each side and then spent another half hour on two different evenings around sunset when the sun was low and would reflect "worst case scenario" for lighting that would show imperfections. A couple weeks ago, we got it installed in the car safely as well!
