If you just wire it to the speedo (and not the ECU) you'll still have vtec in 1st.

Dbo says the one one the gearbox is probably the torque converter..

So you've more than likely got one in the dash near the tweeter.

The clocks you took out look like OEM JDM kph ones with an aftermarket fascia added to read mph. Personally I'd fit a set of ukdm ones and be done with it. No converters needed then!
