Turns out the speedo and clock are missing the spring tabs
completely. I bet the PO was trying to fix this before selling (me)
the car.
While I search for some spring tabs I have an alternative idea.
How about a 1/2" wide band cut from a bicycle inner tube? Put the
gauge in the dash then stretch the band over the gauge from the
front and push the band up against the dash.
