Mph to kph

[Mary]

Is there anyway to convert the speedo from mph to kph.
Was told that for some older cars you can get a sticker which goes under speedo glasss and speed can be read as kph.
Does anyone know if this is available for MM
Any other help appreciated

Mary,
There were stickers available in the '70's to convert speedos to Km but I don't like your chances of finding one now. You could try swap meets for old stock, but I haven't seen any for years in NSW.
It might be better to use Letraset (spelling?) from newsagents to use on your speedo at the appropriate points.
Most Morry speedos are fairly inaccurate now so it might be worthwhile following someone at, say, 40kph, 60kph, 80kph & marking your speedo accordingly.

Thanks for that

later model 1000 speedos, had both k's and miles.
you could try and source one of those

A later speedo will fit in the dash, but your speedo will be inaccurate due to the different rear axle ratio (4.55 as to 4.22 in later cars).
You'll also have a problem with your fuel guage as the operation is completely different.

Speedos can be recalibrated and KPH faces fitted but it costs.
One of our club members had one fitted in Campbelltown NSW Cost $600.00

Mary I learned that if you multiply the first digit of the klm you are supposed to be doing by 6 you get the amount of miles per hour. eg;
60 kl 6x6=36 36 mph.
80 kl 8x6=48 48 mph
100 kl 10x6=60 mph
It is close to being accurate. regards Heather
