Long time no hear kmc, good to hear you're still knocking out the dials! Nice design by the way.

hmm that maybe a prob, the dial is in mph only solution is put a k infront of the mph since the settings are the same.

Sorry guys.

:shock: you get points over there for having a mph dial fitted to the car?

wahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahha

that was good.


in ROI the speed limits are in km/h
it's a bit hard to keep the km/h speed limit when your dash tells you in mph .

over the speed limit => points on your loved licence

So your saying you can put a k on the dials and they would be reading kmh when fitted on a standard kmh/h fto??

If you get the 180mph one and stick it over your 180kmph standard dial the scale is the same..

Are the dials setup to assume a kph-mph conversion has taken place?

The ones I have are exactly the same as my 180kmph originals - only they say 180mph instead.. I'm assuming that it I fit my converter chip it'll be accurate..

I've seen two different mph scales used on after market dials.. one with 110mph where the org would say 180kmph and the one I have..

Accuracy is out the window anyway for anybody how goes and changes the rolling radius of the wheels.. Speedo will only really give you a rough indication of your speed. Apparently it's possible to get quite accurate GPS units, but what the hey..

Is it a big job to recalibrate the speedo to allow for the difference in Radii?
