Default European Guage Clusters...are the available over here?

I know that JDM is all the rage...but I had a thought. Since our cars are available
in other world markets ( LHD) with options that were not offered to us in the States,
logic would dictate that one could get say a guage cluster with all the cool markings with the correct speed reading ( MPH instead of KPH ). Does anyone here know of anyone importing Euro market stuff or is this just a pipe dream of mine?

TIA

So whats the difference between the UK VT, the UK VTi, and the UK Si??? Do they have different redlines? MPH dont go as high?? I thought the VTi one also had the 9500 redline with the 150MPH speedo? So if the UK VT and the UK VTi are the same whats the difference in the UK Si one?

I live in the UK & have a fair few friends that have or know of rex's that are parts cars. I'll try & get some pics of the UK si cluster (we call it a 16v & the UK Vtec is a VT BTW) how many ppl wud be after bits I may be able to collect the parts up for a few of u? I hope to be in a position to buy various parts from the states in the future so I'm more than willing to help with UK/JDM (We get quite a few JDM cars here now) to US as long as ppl can help me out over here?

Can't complain for not playing much...going 3 over on the 11th then drove it OB on 12th...ended up with a decent score though (81). Nice to have met you and hopefully see you at the importshow or at Poppy...any tee time hook ups? hehe.

Ahhh...the price of being different. 3 hundo huh....hmmm.
Got any contact info on importers you could pass on.
I have a few more non USDM goodies I want to add on.

( kinda makes the white/indiglo guages look like the steal of the century )

Sounds like a good round. Yeah man, I got the hookup. I can get guests out for 15 bucks, includes unlimited practice *****, and a cart. Let me know if you are ever in the area. Ryan

I really want one too. They are the best cluster for our cars since they swap right in, have the correct stock redline, and unlike the JDM clusters use mph instead of kph and our cable so you don't have to install an electronic VSS. The orange needles are cool too.
