Is this a hard conversion from a 3 clock australian gauge to UK magnolia 3 clock gauge?

1st issue is the speedo, its Miles instead of Kilometers (speedo needs calibration?)

Wiring? the printed circuit board looks very similar, it should have the same basic wiring anyway right

I'm sure someone here has done the conversion

Yes you can, but I'm not 100% sure they'll fit.
The minispares description may help.
If it does work it will save you a good $200 easy! :D

rev counter is the hard part as nothing else is different as the rev counter is designed to fit a twin point injection mini and the pisck up points are differnt so your rev counter tends to double the revs, i had to calibrate my own, quite easy with 2 screws in the back of the counter you just set up another rev counter and adjust till the same.

they are great look clocks and i have a sticker on mine that says "they are colour coded to match your knuckles".

how do you adjust or calibrate the tacho with the two screws at the back?
are all the wiring the same from a stock clubman?
is it a plug & play thing?
