I know in the settings you can switch to KMPH rather than MPH, but I wondered what that actually does?

Does it just change the digital readout, or does it also change the needle position? I'm not with the car but from what I recall, the dial faces have no markings on it aside from just numbers?

It changes the digital speed and also the odometer.

The Analogue needle points to the same position on the dial to give (rough) mph.

So if I needed to convert to KMPH properly, how would you do it?

You can't you would need a new plate making up and good luck with that. I know one has been done for the tuscan but unless you can get a few people interested it might be cost prohibitive.

I would have thought you could get the 0 - 20 dial changed to a 0- 32 one. Or you could just stick some numbers over the top.

Would the digital alone not be enough?

No, but not sure they'd be able to tell as there's no markings!

I never use the analogue speedo anyway - only digital.
