Hi All!

Does anyone know where I can get a stick-on dial in Mph to replace the current Kph one on an imported car? The model is an E220 Cdi which has come from Belgium. The car can't be driven legally until the speedo reads Mph!

If anyone's done this before, how difficult is it to fit one of these?

Thanks in advance.

Tried this guys, but sadly they only do full conversions, and don't stock the dial sticker for the E220 :cry:

Not so sure if this applies with cars - I have a jap import bike on which 30 50 and 70 mph is marked with magic marker (not even written, just a line). This is, I think, legal as a minimum although there may be a requirement for numerals. I haven't tested this theory yet as the damn thing stopped starting and it hasn't got to the mot man since I got it. I have a perfectly serviceable 230TE and it's cold out there...

Still - back to the subject in hand - if you can put a temporary marking at 30, 50 & 70 (check these- not too sure) you may get yourself on the road until you find the dial you need.

hope this helps, makes sense & is accurate
