Wile7 Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Dear low flyers,Bit of an odd request but you never know on BC :)I'm after a speedo unit with kmh/kph on it. It can have mph as well but mine does not have kmh unfortunately. It's also not reading properly...Also looking for a pair of Left Hand Drive 7" headlamps - don't need the bowls just the sealed lens units with sidelight holes.Please :) Many thanks,DavePS if anyone has either of these in the Guildford area I could pick up as I am in the area for personal reasons for a couple of days (1st to 3rd Jan) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SM25T Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 You can buy LHD headlamp lens/reflector units pretty cheap on line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Jonathan Kay Posted December 31, 2015 Member Share Posted December 31, 2015 Dave: if you don't find the dial you're looking for there are at least 3 recommended instrument reconditioners.Happy ChristmasJonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wile7 Posted January 1, 2016 Author Share Posted January 1, 2016 Ian - thanks for that link. Ordered.Jonathan - thanks...I am under a time constraint because my car passed everything for the Swiss 'MOT' and check/import saga. (12 months on...) except for these two items highlighted last week (but not previously....). One headlight has slight chip on lens whilst speedo has no mph markings but both of these went through the previous two 'checks' leading to this point.I think they just want you to fail here....but I'll battle on! Thanks again - and happy new year!Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Area Representative Nick Chan Posted January 1, 2016 Area Representative Share Posted January 1, 2016 Hi Dave,Happy new year to you and the family! Failing the speedo being available, would a KM sticker overlay on your current clock be suitable? Plenty available on eBay for a quick solution if its suitable for the test.http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/sis.html?_nkw=SPEEDO+OVERLAY+CONVERSION+KIT+STICKERS+MPH+or+KPH&_itemId=290786134334&_trksid=p2047675.m4099CheersNick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Area Representative Golf Juliet Tango Posted January 1, 2016 Area Representative Share Posted January 1, 2016 DaveHappy new year.If you think the speedo isn't reading correctly get it serviced. They will probably be able to help on the dial at the same time.http://www.speedycables.com/m.index.htmlThe service I received was very good value.
