Somebody has to have a good, used ASI sitting on their shelf that they would be willing to sell. 0-160Kts.

What size? I've got a 80mm 0-160 kt, with a 360 degree dial reading. I'm pretty sure it's a Winter 6513.

Don't you need one that has been 'calibrated' to your particular glider?
Or else the White, Green, Yellow and Red bands will not be correct..

V Stall
V rough air
V never exceed.
and V flaps, if you have them.

(I suppose you could always get the small paint-brush out !)

Changing markings is no particular big deal. Winter instruments that have markings on the inner face are done with sticky back plastic tape that is easily removed and replaced. Wag Aero has the marking kit for just a few bucks.
Did one yesterday.

Oh, yes it is a big deal. For a type certificated aircraft, glider or airplane, only a certificated instrument shop is allowed to open the instrument. Putting marking on the outside of the glass is OK but opening the instrument is not. Read the regualtions.

EX glider in my case. My point, incomplete, is that it is easily done by qualified person.
