Km/h to MPH or MPH to Km/h. Dials for imported/exported cars
If your speedo is in Km/h and you need one in MPH, (or vice versa), look no further. You don't have to replace the entire instrument cluster, you only have to replace the speedo face. And we manufacture dial faces for hundreds of different models. You can see our extensive range by clicking ChooseYour Dials . And if you can't see the dial you need there, we may be able to put you in touch with another company who has it. Failing that, if necessary we can make you one. Follow the instructions below to see if we have what you need, if we haven't, don't hesitate to phone and speak to one of our friendly advisors. Ring 0113 2440070 (Outside of U.K. 44113 2440070) or email sales@lockwoodinternational.co.uk .
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- How to find the dial face you need Take a photograph of your speedometer and bring it to the computer. Click ChooseYour Dials and select the Lockwood speedo you believe to be the one you need. Next, compare your speedo with the Lockwood speedo. Then using the diagrams below as a guide, follow the steps outlined. (If you get stuck, give us a ring). Ignore the MPH scale on the Lockwood dial and concentrate only on the Kmh scale, (that's the smaller inner scale), and carry out the following three checks. 1. Check that the Kmh scale on the Lockwood speedometer, starts and finishes at exactly the same positions as the Kmh scale on your speedometer. 2. Check that the Kmh calibrations at the 3 o’ clock and 9 o’ clock position on the Lockwood speedo correspond exactly with the Km/h positions at 3 o’ clock and 9 o’ clock on your speedo. 3. Check that the Kmh calibration at the 12 o’ clock position on the Lockwood speedo is identical with the Kmh calibration at 12 o' clock on your speedo. The two clocks below are simply an example to show you how to make the comparison.

Remember, you are only comparing the Km/h scale (the smaller inner scale) on the Lockwood dial. If the Kmh calibrations match yours at all of these five positions this could be the conversion dial you are looking for. We supply clear, easy to follow step by step fitting guidelines. Hundreds of thousands of ordinary car owners have fitted Lockwood replacement dials in their cars. If you just want to change your speedo but there isn't one available in the original colour, a dial kit from our extensive range of white or coloured 'designer' dials could be your solution.
A note about Speedo converters Some importers fit a 'speedo converter'. This is a tiny device, sometimes electrical other times mechanical. These convert the signal to the speedo from KMH to MPH. They may then simply put an MPH sticker over the 'KM/h', to hide it. Many who have a car fitted with a speedo converter still opt. to also have replacement clock faces fitted.
