Mazda MX5 speedometer conversion NA/NB

Inspired by our customer with the individual integration of an  MFD15  in a Mazda MX5, we have designed a specific conversion kit, which makes it possible to remove the original oil pressure display and install our display – WITHOUT cutting – the CANchecked Mazda MX5 speedometer conversion

Unfortunately, a small modification has to be made and that would be a hole for the cable passage on the back of the speedometer.

The OLED technology of the display ensures the best readability even in sunlight. It is operated using the tried and tested rotary knob, which enables precise control of the display.

Here are a few conversion pictures using an MX5 NB speedometer as an example (an NA version is also available; we are working on an NC version):

– What’s inside –


Our MFD15 is installed  , software and hardware (apart from the housing) are identical. Only freely programmable control units are currently supported (trijekt, megasquirt, LinkECU, KMS).

In addition to the Can Bus connection, the display has 4 analog inputs for connecting 0-5V sensors (oil pressure, fuel pressure, boost pressure, exhaust gas temperature with type K converter). These inputs can be individually configured (mapping the 0-5V signal to the real values).

The conversion is carried out by the customer himself. Installation instructions are included.


– Current status –


The conversion kit and the instructions are complete and the NA/NB versions can be obtained from our dealers. The popular motorsport electronics ME221 Gen1 can be connected directly to the MFA with a special adapter from us.
We could not find a speedometer solution for the MX5 NC and ND. But we have designed nice inserts for the air vents. These versions also work with the original control unit via the OBD2 socket.
