raddys Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 Hi, my 93 tt auto is still in kmh and i want to convert it to mph and the odo i need converting to read miles and say miles instead of kmh, my question is i can find a speedo converter but id rather a reputable company do it with a certificate? Anyone know anyone who could do this job around the bedfordshire area? Or failing that anywhere else? Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevie_b Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 There's 2 issues here. Converting the speedo to read in mph instead of kph is fairly easy. But that won't do anything to change the odo to miles. Depending on how they're wired up, some of the speed converters (or UK speedo cluster I think) will make the odo count up in miles from this point onwards. This is the worst of both worlds IMO, because the odo will read a weird mixture of kms and miles. If you must have an odo that reads in miles, I'd suggest you get it professionally converted to a mileage count. Anything else is shady, confusing or both.

Most if not all of the speed converters will do this. Converting the odo is extra effort. Note that the speedo and the odo are quite separate things. Converting one of them doesn't automatically convert the other. It sounds strange I know, but that's how it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
