Does anyone know if an American B5 set of gauges will be able to trade with someones from Britian, or Canada for instance? and if so would anyone want to trade? I'd like to get the gauges that Have the KM in big numbers and MPH in small numbers.

COME ON MY INTERNATIONAL BROTHERS!!! YOU KNOW U WANT SOME OF OUR GAUGES!!! lol
hahahaha i have the *wanted* gauge setup , nice :lol:
sorry stranded but UK guages have MPH BIG and kmh small also :(
You'll need to find someone in continental europe & possibly australia / new zealand.
Ok, thanks Didgeman..... SO u heard it Australia/New Zealand guys! You want to trade, i can feel it, contact me, LOL.
Shouldnt this be in the classifieds forum? :roll:
they dont have miles in Europe in the gauge. I still want to have MPH to keep up with the speed limits (yeah right ;) )
hahaha, this prolly should be in the Classifieds, but i also want to know if they fit so i can put and official:"WTT: My MPH Gauges for your KMH gauges" thread up. No one has said if they will work or not... so i gotta wait on that.
yes they will fit. if anything, you would be best to just canabalize a Euro cluster and take the face plates out and swap them into your cluster. That would save you the hastle of finding a cluster thats new, or one that can be reprogrammed with your propper milage. Just an idea.

And, xedo, we can learn to translate, lol.. put a little chart up for the first few months that have KMH=MPH conversions. lol

How would i do that? and i know w/ a vag com u can change ur Miles to Kilometers.
I would love to have the KM written in large but as it was said before, no MPH and i seriously dont know how to do the conversion :) Still, been used to KPH all my life but I have to say i quite like the MPH system..
im just gonna start watching my speeds and comparing them to KMH.. hopefully i'll get good at it b/c i want this mod, lol.

You guys are searching too far. Canada uses the metric system.
Do any Canadians here in this forum want to trade?
