It has been done but I can't remember how. There is a thread somewhere with details.

I think the thread title needs to be change to mileometer
Rather the speedometer.
Just a thought.

As for the issue the old one looks like it is a mechanical version and the new one is electrical.

Hope you find the answer you need.

Saf @SAF68 regarding your speedo clocks, it's a just simple solution of +12v feed. So-called classic speedo has different voltage feed pinout than hi-vis one. Been covered here few times by myself, but obviously ignored.

Thank's Swinks , i understand now that the problem is +12v ... But i don't now , i don't see how to resolve the problem whithout the electrical wiring diagram of the speedo

Don't know if this might help @SAF68 but here you go https://www.thegalantcenter.org/show...r-swap-for-VR4. I did this on my vrg which did not come with a hi vis ip and the lights nor needles worked. So when I got a hi vis ip and installed it and followed the wiring from the post I mentioned there and it worked perfectly.

Saf, @SAF68 here it is full guideline which always worked, post #11:

need rheostat hi vis dash dual plug on it first, and then the wiring. BTW does anyone know where to order custom hi vish dash plate for MT VR4 with 260 kph speedometer?
