Ive just bought a TRD speedo, and can pull the dash apart, fit it and everything, how do I set the Km's on it though? At the moment it's at 1Km and I'd like to make it the same as the odo I've pulled out.

nah some people put a drill on the speedo drive, i personally just use some thin sharp object to force the cogs slightly left and upward.

hmm that was for analogue.
if its a digital dash you need to send it away to be done, cant think of the name of the place we use.

Nah if it was a digital odo it would be fine. It's mechanical and I've got 80,000 Odd Km's to add to it(I'm being honest you see).

I've been advised to get in touch with Castle Hill Toyota who can tell me a place that re-calibrates the speedo to your current distance travelled.
Anyway it's installed and looks sweet, just need to get down to wakefield to make use of it.

Where abouts are you? Theres a VDO agent/workshop in brookvale that can do that for you. All the local dealers use them for that type of thing.
I Cant remember their name, But there in Carter road next to Cortis Exhaust
