Default (Want to trade) MPH speedo for KPH

Just import into Canada a manual 1996 carrera 2 convertible 993 with original USA MPH speedometer. (faceplate is black and has trip odometer)
Anyone who has a KPH similar speedo meter interested to swap?

Will take some pictures tonight. If I get a silver, I will have to switch all my other faceplates...
Can you also please send me some pic.
Thanks

Thanks for posting, Ricky_D

I've given it some thought and have decided to stick with my KM/H speedo, thanks though!

If you can't find a swap check with Palo Alto Spedometer as they'll do a conversion for you, including resetting the odometer to the correct KM. I've used them before and they are a top shelf outfit.

Thanks for the info, I may give them a call. Any idea of how much they charge for the conversion MPH to KPH ?

Ricky: They quoted me about $300, a few years ago.

And welcome.
