Does anyone know where one could get a speedo in kilometres for a MK1? And can you change the LED screen read out to display klms instead of miles (odometer & speed)? scratchchin



I assume you would just replace the brass plate which would have the correct calibrations. They exported Tuscans to metric LHD Europe so someone must know....I hope.

you can display Km by scrolling through the options on the dash. Depends if you want it for more than one trip?

Apparently you can buy the brass speedo plate in Km/H instead of Mph from Racing Green I think. I looking into fitting this myself as I'm struggling with converting Mph to Km/h every time I see a speed camera or a mobile speed trap her in Oz (and there are a lot of these around). At the moment, I'm using a Satnav to tell me what my speed is but its a pain if I go driving without one.

Mine displays MPH on the main screen and on the next screen I have KM/H.
Dont they all have this. Mine is an early 2000 Tuscan.

On the MK1 software, the front screen speed can be changed to show either Km or M per hr. I think the 2nd screen only ever shows Km/hr though. Could be wrong but I think that's how it is. Not sure about the MK2 software config. I don't think changing the brass plate would be a big job, once you've got the pod unit out.

Hey Onny,
Rob here, this is a role reversal, you in Canberra and me in England. I do know it is possible to get the plate in kilometres I just didn’t know where from....thanks for that. I will do some calling today and find out where we can get one or two. I will PM you.

I am also very interested, have you only bought the cluster or do they also install the Km cluster?
Who has this part in stock?
What is about the Price?
