The local meausement unit for velocity, is Kilometers/hour = 1 km/h = 1.6m/h, 100 km/h = 62.5 m/h.
the most important old gauge and new gauge diferences are the frequency of the speedometer signal.
tach, temp and fuel gauge are easily adaptable.
The speedometer is digigal, the speed sensor send a signal of 16 pulses per meter (16 pulses per 39.37 inch aprox) at least on the board here in Arg.
The old gauge takes te speed direct from the gearbox. (NOT DIGITAL)

Actually speedo sensor for non cable dials on corsa is 15 impulse on EU versions. 16 impulses is uses on kadett,calibra and ascona
Also the dials face is the same as the corsa C but casing is different thats why will fit on corsa b. I would like to see a photo of cable going to the clocks and to see if can be change and if cabling is same as the corsa c ?
How much can that type of dials can be bought from Argentina 2nd hand?

Even if they did, they only show KPH. To convert it you'd have to get a new face for starters, in which case you might as well just get a new face for your current clocks.
just do what jap imports do, use current clocks so 20kph becomes 20mph with a inline electrical thing.

It's not words, it's a visualisation thing tied to the stereo I think.
