question about clk55 (another one)...

I am aware that the digital section of the guage cluster is able to read in both miles and kms but when set to kms does the analog speedometer adjust to measure in kms/hr or does it stay at mph?
...looking at importing one which is why i am asking.

If you're importing one (this info is for the W208 CLK55), your speedometer will only read KPH. On U.S.-spec gauges, both MPH and KPH are printed in the dial.

Here's a video of a W208 speedo that reads KPH.....

.....and the U.S.-spec version....the KPH readings are the smaller number on the inside of the ring...
