Dom,
 
Lancair sells United Instruments AS indicators marked with the correct ranges.  I went ahead and got the Lancair one because if you order custom markings from A/S (or other shops) you'll spend about $95 extra for custom markings.  Mine works great.
 
The Lancair web site only shows two AS indicators for the Legacy, but both of them are 0-300 knots.  The are for the IV and the Legacy.  Does the Legacy have the same speeds as a IV?  I would guess not.  Does the Legacy FG have the same speeds as the Legacy?
 
I remember comparing the book numbers to the AS indicator to make sure my markings were correct.  They were for my ES.  I would make sure the markings are correct before ordering.  I doubt they are selling them for a Legacy with "close enough" markings, but I guess it's possible.
 
The only reason to order from someone other than Lancair is if you want your markings to be different than what Lancair publishes/recommends/claims.
 
I would bet Lancair gets a deal on the markings because they order in quantity.
 
Plus, you get a little Lancair logo on your AS indicator!
