No. That's a mechanical one for MY93-96 cars.
Yours is electronic, so needs an electronic 'intercepting' convertor. Loads on eBay... |
thank you for your reply mate
|
I bought this one and had it fitted to my own STi 5:-
SUBARU SPEEDO CONVERTER / DELIMTER / KMH TO MPH Works beautifully. Comes with full wiring instructions (straightforward). You'll also need to put a "MPH" sticker over the speedo clock's existing "km/h" one. I have a load of these that I made on my computer/printer and laminated them. I mimicked the OEM style font/graphic style too. ;) Used double-sided sticky tape on the back, so won't come off. I can send you some if you want...? |

I think it IS a MOT failure (for obvious reasons). I'm sure a 'friendly' tester wouldn't be bothered though.
willsy, PM me your address and I'll try to send one or two out, Tuesday (4th) evening... |
Sorry about that link - the linking feature buggered it up. Try again with this one:-

My clocks are still in kmph and I've had 2 MOTs :)
|

|
That's all good then. :)
|
