Is it the converter or new clocks you want? If its the Kph-Mph converter I did see one for sale on the UK site. U could look there.
Failing that I might be buying one from uk with clocks changed to MPH seen as we use KMH I could be persuaded to part with it if I go ahead with purchase(depending on condition). I'm viewing it tomorrow so will keep you posted :wink:

Sorry I was talking about the converter not the clocks. I'm not 100% but I'd imagine its a fault with the converter not the dial itself. It probably wasn't set up correctly or has stopped working over time. I remember reading something about adjusting the converter you could do a search for it see what comes up.

:lol: Some go faster stripes too by the looks of things! Never got anywhere near a max speed of 662kmh myself. But the sat nav says it so it must be true. :smt104

I think Berno was bold and turned his satnav on while he was flying..

Either that there's a REAL surprise instore for everybody come next drag race!

The Legnum on has Mph on the dials and it's wrecking my head - so I have a more or less permanent installation of the sat nav now just to keep an eye on the speed..

also the lady that lives in my sat nav warns me when I operate outside the speed-limits, fairly handy..
