Export Dash Question
I'm trying hard not to get an export "300 mph" dash unit, will it is a losing battle. My question is ... is there anyway to set the unit up so that it reads MPH by default? Oh, here is another question ... can the oil pressure and temperature guages be changed out with the U.S. unit ? Thanks in advance.

Re: Export Dash Question (johnma)
On mine the units are user selected and remain until they are selected again or the battery is disconnected. Metric is the default after the battery is reconnected.
I think, but have not verified, that the fuel efficiency is in Miles/US gallon. I get about 30 Highway MPG.
I would suspect that the gauges wont care which dash they are in, the angular rotation of the needle will be the same in both cars providing an equivalent reading.
I got to ask the dumb question, Is there a reason why you would want to clock over 200MPH ? :eek:

No such thing as a dumb question, only dumb answers.
I go to a lot of car shows and always the first thing kids look at is the speedometer. "Wow, 200 mph !!" I just think it would be cool to hear "Wow, 300 mph ... no way !!!!!!!!"
