Because it's easy. Whole job took about an hour. Replaced the tach and speedo gauges from another binnacle (cost around £25 from ebay) and the job's done. Worked perfectly and checks out accurate against GPS without any calibration. The speaker on mine had given up the ghost as well so that kind...

Thanks for the response. This is the ultimate plan once I've got a way to "talk to the car". Then I'll be searching for a "blow by blow" I'm not that fussed about the the units on the Odometer. If it was easy to change I would have given it a go but it seems a bit of a minefield so I'll live...

The instruments I've bought matches so easier still. I don't have an EKA code or a working fob for the car and I'm not sure about getting one from my local LR dealer with it being a Japanese import so I'm loathed to disconnect the battery in case I get the dreaded "engine disabled". The RSW SW...

Hi New to the forum so if I'm being dumb feel free to shot me down in flames.. I've bought an import P38 (4.6 Gems) and want to change the speedo face to MPH from Km/hr. Not really bothered about the odometer reading Km. My thoughts, and this might be me being dim, the speedo and tacho gauges...

New to the forum but on my second P38. The first was rattled from 90k to 155k over three years giving less problems than the previous new "normal" company cars I drove so I'm hoping for the same. "Hope for the best, plan for the worst" :) . On that note........into the forum with some questions.
