Post KMH to MPH 2001 onwards

I have a jap sti7 and the speedo is still in kmh, I believe I need an electronic device to change the speedo to mph, is this true, where do I get one and how is it fitted, I can get the total km reading changed to miles after wards I just want my speedo and clocks working right. Also do I need to change the decals or just cover the kmh with mph...

Welshboy, We keep the best ones in stock - they are supplied exclusively to Charlesworths the auction people and we get them from them. About 75 quid plus VAT in round numbers for the electronics and easy fit yourself too, best with a soldering iron. Instructions supplied. The beauty of them is that they are re-programmeable via a palm pilot ot laptop just in case you have oversize wheels and the accuracy is off.


The best way to change the k/mh sign is to paint over the 'k' in matching black or blue or white or whatever paint. By sticking the little stickers over the k/mh sign you blot out the ability for the light to shine through the translucent dial face. Which is a failure at an SVA station. It's also neater than a crinkly horrid sticker.
