Where can i get a set of MPH gauges from to convert my Rx7 i would be interested in what others have done about this???
there are plenty of companys out there that offer easy ways of converting from kmph to mph, i found a simple chip on ebay which you wire into the back of the speedo and makes it read in mph. here is a link to the ebay item that i purchased, mine works fine and the 110 limiter is also removed.

I think Motormall load an MPH "Image" onto a kph one and put a sticky label over the kph letters.
or something like that - give adam a call on 01303-894732
Ok thanks guys
Chris are you after the convertor, or the actual guages eg the speedo face etc. I know of a place that can do dial/gauge faces......cheers Leigh.
Hi Leigh
I\'m after the actual speedo faces thanks
Ok these can be had from black cat custom in Canada, they supply a full set of gauges in white, black,blue and most other colours. They supply the Americans who also run in MPH same as us. The full set includes speedo,rev counter, fuel guage, oil pressure and even around the heater controls.
Have a look at their website //www.blackcatcustom.com from memory. Don\'t be put off because they are in Canada they are great people to deal with and very helpful. They can even print RX7 logo\'s on the guages for you as well, or even other designs if you ask them. They also take Visa over the phone, when I ordered mine took about 2 weeks for delivery. I ordered 2 sets so they chucked in free delivery.
Have a browse around their website and when you have made up your mind give them a call. I did this and it was like calling your next door neighbour clear as a bell. Forgot too say they do them in any backlit colour you want as well, different colour backing material I think. Cheers Leigh.
Quick picture link http://www.blackcatcustom.com/images/wpe1.jpg hope it works.
Thanks for that how much did yours cost if you don\'t mind me asking
Um can\'t remember the exact price, was 2 years ago or possibly longer when I ordered mine. So would\'nt want to quote any prices, all I can remember was they wern\'t mega bucks. But a fairly reasonable price, drop them an email first and see what they quote. They maybe able too quote you happy :) . Cheers Leigh.
e-mailed them about a week ago NO REPLY??
I was lucky enough to get a pucker Mazda MPH clock from RX motors - mine was sticking. The advantage with this was that even the odometer is in mph too! Great! No convertor require either. I was lucky to get one - must have come out of a uk car.

Sorry maybe they are shut for hols or very busy, cheers Leigh.
I have been in contact with black cat over the past week.
Very good at responding answered all my question.
Cost for a set of dials will be 109 US $, and they will thorow on a couple of logo\'s if they are simple. $20 delivery not a bad price seeing as your getting something custom made.
I am going to throw a design at them and see if they can do it.
