It may not be reading KMs... it all depends on where your speedo appears to max out......
Mine reads true miles and true miles per hour
It has a 'widget' in the sensor line (sits in the connector box under the tank) that knocks out 3 pulses out of every 8 - so it receives 5 pulses out of every 8 so it reads "30" when its doing
48KPH (30MPH). This works fine except that at low speeds you can't tell if you're doing 28MPH or 35MPH (and that can make the difference between "NIP" and "no NIP") and the speedo suggests you can do 250MPH. This impresses 9 year-old Schumacher wannabees but means the top half of the dial is never used..
So - if your overlay covers the entire dial and it maxes out at 175 - then you're probably seeing KM on the ODO readout.
If it has a "MPH" sticker over the "KPH" logo and it maxes out at 250 then you're probably seeing true miles.
