I hate to break the news to the op, while that sounds like a good fantasy, the use of electric speedometers have been covered in the regulations of the us dot and is an accepted form of indicator of speed. It is not like a hand held device or an eld but rather part of the vehicle when it was made.

The gps receiver is only accurate to a certain limit. The speedometer is allowed to have I think 3 or 5% latitude. -

All of the regs I've seen state "handheld (or portable) electronics device"
