[s-cars] US Import - Speedo Specifics?

[Abhijit Kondajji]

Dwayne,

You'll have to import the car via certified importer on U.S side.
Documents showing the change of Speedo, DOT and EPA approval have to
be provided to USDOT. I don't remember the name of the importer. Let
me ask my friend and reconfirm with you. If importer willing to work
with you, you can provide pics of an U.S speedo instead and get the
documentation taken care of. Meanwhile, I would still urge you to
legally procure a MPH speedo (driving in KM/H calculating how many MPH
in your head is RIDICULOUS).

Where in USA did you move to?
