Speedo swap and mileometer

I finally got round to swapping my intermittent clocks for a UK set I bought months ago. 

 

I used to know all this, but it's been a few years and my brain is older and smaller

It turns out what I was sold as a series one UK set is actually a series two, so it doesn't just swap out the hole unit ?

 

So I'm swapping the speedo unit over, that's easy enough. What I can't remember is the mileometer. I think the mileometer is fed from the output of the speedo unit (via the plug on the back) so swapping in a UK speedo into jap clocks will convert the mileometer into miles automatically? 

Does this sound right? 

Or do I need to also swap in the UK mileometer (and therefore wind it to the correct value)
