Default New gauge face, will this work

I found this on ebay. They guy selling it claims you don't have to recalibrate your speedo. It goes to 120, how can you not recalibrate it?

should work, but you will need to write down where the needles are when your truck is on.

Cheap but I don't see how it will work without recalibrating the speedometer.

As long as your current speedo goes to 120 and has a trans temp guage, it won't require a recal, but if not i'm not even sure how you would go about doing it, might just try to find a HD cluster for cheap, if not you would have a project on your hands, probably easier to just buy a escalade cluster from a junk yard.
