If you're looking to change your speedometer from miles per hour to km/h, then I suggest you just find a used kilometers per hour speedometer and swap that in instead. The gears that you need to replace inside this the speedometer are only available with the kilometers per hour speedometer so you will need to find one anyway. A good odometer shop like Hollywood speedometer can assist you with the face replacement and the recalibration of the speedometer. Although you can do this at home it's easy to mess up and your speedometer may never read the correct speed in the future.

x2 on Wayne's comment

alternative is to send it to PaloAltoSpedo & have them modify it - costs about $200

- I had my oem metric speedo fit with a new combo face that shows both mph & kmh

I do have a spare oem metric speedo if you want to buy it

I picked up some 914 parts, among them a 250 KM/H speedo. I've heard that these were outfitted in euro 914-6 cars.

looking to sell, but have no idea as to value, any help out there?

.... 2 year old tread.

Speedo is the same as 911. depending on condition $200 to $400

I drove a kilometer speedo equipped car for years in the US and just got used to the bigger numbers, It is simple to do a little calculation to figure the mph. I assume it would be the same using a mph speedo in a place that uses kilometers.

Are forced to make this change due to some government regulation?
