hi i think they will as they are currenlty in my wrx working fine!!
the only thing you may need to look at is the kmh to mph convertor!!
as im not sure if you will need it with the mph clocks! my understanding is it either decreases the voltage signal or or increases it for whichever clocks are fitted into the car (if that makes sense)
maybe you could ask about the convertors on the tech forum

the converters are for converting KPH clocks to MPH so that 20 KPH Reads 20 MPH. if you put MPH clocks in and the wheels spin at 20MPH then the clocks will read 20MPH

lets not get confused.
these are uk clocks.
if you take a JDM (KPH) clocks. the guys open them and put tape over the K so that the clocks show M/H then you put a converter on so that the clocks read MPH.
if you are puting MPH clocks in then they WONT need a converter and will read at the correct speed +/- due to caleberation and gear ratios from the hawk/blob.
clocks do not make your wheels spin at different speeds. its the reading of the JDM clocks you are trying to change to read MPH.
simple science

This would be the case if the speed sensor on the gearbox was identical on the JDM Blob Eye and the UK Hawk Eye and sends identical signals to their respective clocks letting the clocks do the deciphering and converting to which ever units needed. Is this the case??

the ratio's are slightly off. i was about 2-3 MPH difference running hawk in my blob. but that was minus so running through a 70Mph speed camera at 67Mph is good

Thanks guys
These are in mint condition with a low mileage so I think they are worth the money all day long.....
And they are uk spec so drop straight into any newage car with the correct mph display...... so straight forward with no need for convertors etc.....
