How to change my speedo/ Tachograph to UK spec?

Hi all and looking forward to being of help to anyone I can too, although my knowledge is very limited!

Have just imported from Ireland an 06' RR Sport HSE 2.7d and am in the process of getting ready for her 1st MOT.

I need to change the speedo to read in MPH and would also like to change the digital tachograph to read mph instead of kph as displayed now.

I know in a Citroen van we own its just a matter of pressing a button, to change units of measurement but from searching on here it sounds not as easy on the Land Rover?

Im sure someone has answered this before and apologies if im covering old ground!

Any help greatly appreciated!?

Thanks again Frank

You can't chang ethe speedo... it's a "print out"... But doesn't it say both km and mph on it?

Nope just KPH, Lockwood do a dial set that looks very good quality, but the idea of splitting the dash to get in makes me feel a bit ill! I will take a look through the menus for the tacho graph!

Yep but I live in the North of Ireland (Part of UK so same mot and miles instead of kms) and bought the RRS in Dublin where they have a thing called an NCT (equivalent to MOT but not accepted as such up here) and km clocks... oh and the Euro as well! They are much more European orientated than up here, hence the differences!

I presume your 07 car originated from NI not Rep of I?
