Kilometer dial (instead of miles dial) for my odometer

[Franky]

Hallo, I love your miles but getting too much fines. For my V8 J 100 i am looking for a kilometer dial (or do you call it a kilometer face) Who can help me out?

Hi Franky, out of interest, why can't you use the blue numbers to gauge your speed? Changing out the console is going to be an expensive thing to do, and I think it is unlikely (although I might be wrong) that you will be able to just change the speed dial

+1 Or you could just get some small sticky red dots and put them in the relevant places round the dial (60kph etc.). There are places that do new dials (mph kmh dual speed dials for imported cars - [Leaving Land Cruiser Club] is one), but seems like a lot of bother.

Hi Nick the fish, the blue numbers are realy in the background and especially in the evening hardly visable. If I can get an original face it is just a replacement and i know a company who can do the job.

OK flint, thanks a lot. I also have a company in Holland doing same sort of thing. But would help if I can supply them with a dial.

Hi Frank,

If you have found someone who can change out the dial in the meter assembly then your best bet is to go to this website

Parts catalog for Toyota Land Cruiser

Electronic spare parts online catalog for Toyota Land Cruiser. Toyota Land Cruiser engine, chassis, body and electric parts.

toyota-general.epc-data.com

and select your Land Cruiser, where you'll be able to find the part number for your speedometer assambly. It'll probably be in 'Electrical' then 'Meter'. You can then google the part number it to see if you can find a KM/h dial. Or you could try Amayama who will send if from Japan/ UAE.

Hope that helps

Great, thanks a lot.

So much easier to look at the navi screen instead. And when it's attached to the speed signal it's always accurate.
