Default Tip Speedo Wanted

Have been looking for a MPH tiptronic speedometer to replace the KPH one that is currently in my german car.

Does anyone have one or be interested in a swap. Gets a bit difficult sometimes to calculate MPH from KPH if I forget the road angel

TIA

I don't know if it can be converted to mph, however, you might ask North Hollywood Speedometer (www.nhspeedometer.com) if they can convert the face and make the electrical adjustment. May not be possible, but you may want to ask. (Sorry, I don't know where Lytham St. Annes is)

Bill,

Thanks for that, Lytham St Annes is in the UK.

I really just want to swap out and replace.

May be worth giving these guys a try, they have a fairly extensive used parts stock list and they operate a mail order service

Dicount 9 Autotech Ltd Bridgend, South Wales. 01656 740991

...or Porsch-a-Part in Yorkshire - they have a speedo-repair service and might have a spare unit.

You might try 20th St. Auto out of Arizona. No relationship, but I've gotten good service from them.

Thanks Guys,

Have tried Simon at Porsche-Apart and he does not have one, so will give the others a go.
