SPEEDO HELP🤔🤔🤔🤔

Hi all. I have just imported a low mileage, one owner, 3 door 1.25 duratec in from Italy.

Im just in the process of getting it ready for its first UK mot to get it registered, headlights are done. The speedo is is KPH only so I thought I’d go for a conversion plate to change the face rather than faff about changing it, however I’ve changed the faceplate and the revs and speed are all over the place and the aftermarket look of the product is naff so I’m going to use a UK spec 2nd hand unit that does mph and kph and retain the factory look, does anybody know someone other than the local ford dealer that can reprogramme the unit to the car and change the mileage to the same that’s on my European unit please?

any advice would be helpful please

cheers

I’d say that would be quite an expensive way of doing it, would it not be possible to buy a second hand speedo unit and just remove the faceplate and fit that to your existing unit?

It’s an absolute pig of a job, I have done all the work to remove it again, I just have the board and the plug, it runs fine.....help
