    Default Commodore VT MPH speedo

    Hey guys does anyone know where i can get a MPH speedo fascia for my VT Commodore? I saw one on ModYourCar.com - Car Accessories | Car Parts | Performance Parts | Aftermarket Parts but I really dont feel they're worth over $200. Any ideas??

    a cheaper alternative would require a steady hand, removal of the dash and some liquid paper
    whats the difference between my missus and my blower??
    well they both whine but the blower actually puts out

    Is it for the dash or an extra speedo?

    A really long shot would be to try UK Ebay... IIRC they sent a few VT Clubsports over with MPH speedos... might get lucky

    NOTE - REALLY long shot.

    Another option would be having a chat to the eBay user Speed_Graphics. He makes custom fascias to order... He could probably fabricate one with the requested markings.

    But also, Why?

    Why? For something different. Im turning my car into a Chevrolet Lumina LS. I already have a genuine CHEVROLET VT rear garnish. I just wanna go all out. Chevy airbag, remote key etc etc. If i get sick of it ill just change it all back to Holden. I have a GTR fascia at the moment.

    I'm pretty certain after reading that my sperms are retarded.

    To the fella above me, good question...not sure lol. There are old Holdens with MPH and other older cars so I would assume it's all OK.

    No its not. Those older cars come under a different set of ADRs. (likewise for things like emission's etc)

    MPH is illegal. You can however show BOTH types (either 2 separate gauges, of one gauge with 2 sets of numbers). Just as long as one of them says Km/h.
