Title: Gti Odometer
Post by: s17nj on 11 September 2006, 15:49

Hi guys, imk a bit new to this stuff so bare with me.
I just recently purchased a mk3 1995 GTI 16v,  :smug:
Only problem is that its an import from japan, and therefore everything is in Kmh, I went to VW today and asked if just the speedo could be changed and they said no the whole cluster has to be replaced.
and will cost £450-500 to replace including fitting.   :shocked:
Is there any way around this? or any suggestions?
help would be greatly appreciated!!!!!!

Sure its easy peasy and cheap. Look on ebay or in scrappys for a new set of clocks. It will plug straight in. If the speedo is reading wrong after this you will need to order a new drive from vw (this may only apply to mk2's) which are only cheap.
