Where abouts in the uk are you ? I can suplly and fit a convertor for you if your not too far away from Croydon or put you in touch with someone who can fit one for you. It makes the car count up in miles instead of kilometers and de-restricts it in one.

Say if your doing 62mph at present your speedo will show 100kmh, with the chip your speedo will read 62mph. Also your trip meter will count up in miles but it l still shows km though and you can do whatever the top speed is
I can do this for £100

Cool
So do you need the whole car. Or can i just bring the part you need. Doesnt matter really.
Sounds good to me. Is it a hard job. I am an electronic engineer so could fit it myself if guided a bit.

Not hard to do just a 4 wires to solder and another two connect to back of dash. I can advise with fitting if you need it. I would need the whole car though if you wanted me to do it.
