nikbiomed Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 Hi Can anyone answer what is probably a simple question, before I spend good money on this. I have a JDM car so the Digital speed/fuel/rev light adj guage is showing all information in Kilometers (even though the speed part is calibrated in MPH). I was wondering if I can update to a UK guage which will show everything in Miles instead, ie MPH instead of KMH, and MPG instead of KM per litre, etc etc. I have been following another thread on ere where some guys changed theirs over and all they got was dashes so thought best to find out what the score is on this one first. Someone is prepared to sell me the upgraded guages knowing that I have a JDM car so presume if he is a pukka member he should know if they work or not. Info would be greatly appreciated. Quote
M13KYF Posted September 10, 2009 Posted September 10, 2009 pretty sure its been done by a member on here. Have you done a search Quote
M13KYF Posted September 10, 2009 Posted September 10, 2009 heres a starter for 10. there are others. Use pods as the search viewtopic.php?f=9&t=14383&hilit=+pods Quote
dcash5 Posted September 10, 2009 Posted September 10, 2009 Yep straight swap, only thing you wont get on the JDM cars is the time displayed on the multifunction dial (as its on the BOSE in the JDM's) Other than that everything is converted. Dan Quote

Dan Me and GT4Zed did a swap the other month and my dials didn't work in his and vice versa. What year and spec is yours and if you know, what year and spec was the donor car? I may do this in the future Quote

dcash5 Posted September 10, 2009 Posted September 10, 2009 Mine is a 52, Stole some gauges out of a 53 Uk. Quote
nikbiomed Posted September 10, 2009 Author Posted September 10, 2009 Thanx for this info on that, mine is a late 2003 JDM so will look for older car pods now in the hope they work. Don't mind paying around £40-50 for them on the off chance they work but only really had one offer to date and he wanted £125 I think, which is a lot if it aint gonna work. Thanx again bud Quote

sunset350z Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 £125 is cheap, and i'm sure if they aint compatible the seller will take them back. Quote
