gage cluster from canada

i found a 145 speedo for my 92, but the main numbers are in kilometers. would it work to get it and put white face covers on that are in mph?

what is the odometer set in?

The odometer is set in kilometers. To convert to miles simply multiply the km by 0.62, i.e., 100 km/h = 62 mph.

If you can do that mentally then I'd leave it. After all, do you want a speedometer that says "150" or one that says "240"?

Our Canadian gauges have the mph in smaller lettering just inside of the km/h, anyway. If yours doesn't have that then there is something not original about it and you might just have to resort to white covers anyway
