Does anyone have another source for that?
You should be looking at a flange-thread adapter, like this:

It should not be able to get one made by someone with a lathe. I printed one on my 3d printer for the speedo hall sensor from a Mondeo (I made the plunge to VDO gauges with an electronic speedo. 5 gauges from ebay £50, the speedo £200). The standard thread for speedo drives is M18x1.5, just like oxygen sensors, etc. The disk might have a tab that would prevent it from spinning when you're trying to undo the thread.
