Vehicle Speedometer Tachometer Specification Example for Dealership Service: Standard Replacement
Vehicle Speedometer Tachometer Specification Example for Dealership Service: Standard Replacement
This is a worked specification for vehicle speedometer tachometer in a standard replacement programme. It is the document we would send a buyer who asks what exactly they are getting: the material, the dimensions that are actually controlled, the finish, and the checks that happen before anything is packed.
The standard replacement version exists because the duty cycle on dealership service is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually packing that arrived crushed at the port.

- Fix the base material in writing — Powder Coated Steel, in this example.
- List the dimensions that are actually controlled and the tolerance on each.
- Name the finish and what it has to survive.

Processes involved
- ultrasonic cleaning
- robot welding
- die casting
- surface grinding
- sintering
- electroplating
Where this example applies
Programmes that run standard replacement most often specify this build for dealership service. Related applications include camper conversions, assembly programmes, fleet maintenance, city buses, scooter fleets.
Checks before packing
- Dimensional report against the approved drawing.
- AQL 1.5 sampling on the finished lot.
- Finish inspection under agreed lighting.
- Carton drop test on the first lot of a new packing specification.
Questions buyers ask
Can you match an existing sample?
Send a sample and we will reverse-engineer the specification, then produce a counter sample for approval before any bulk starts.
How is packing specified?
Individual packing, inner box quantity and carton marking are confirmed at quotation stage so the cartons arrive ready for your warehouse.
Can the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the ISO 9001-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
Do you handle mixed containers?
Yes. Most programmes consolidate several part numbers into one container to keep freight sensible at 3000 pieces per line.
Send the specification you are working to and we will confirm what we can match, what we would change and why.
