It would probably upset a UKIP supporter.

The lockwood dial face looks more OEM if you want that look :P (which I love! lol)

If you fitted a dial face then your odometer would still tick over in KM but you could always turn the clocks to read miles as well

Ah good old redial kits. They do a stock dial too.

British made and only £20 far cheaper than lockwood.

I went for the above in the end guys and I'm very impressed with the results. Have a look at here for some pics:

I swapped my NC35 speedo with one from a 1st gen 900RR and got a UK NC30 speedo for my JDM NC30.

Fit a kph to mph converter from e bay.
Speedo then reads and records mph, take a note of the speedo reading and convert to miles and record it in your service details.
