How can I change the default 'google.com' to google.co.uk' in search options?

I have tried changing '.com' to '.co.uk' for all the google entries in about:config, but to no effect. Some people may say why, there is no difference but...

My problem is that if, for example, I search for hotels in say Germany, google defaults the typical room prices to $ whereas if I go to google.co.uk the prices are then displayed in £.

As I type now on the firefox support page, the drop-down in the serach box offers me the ability to add 'Mozilla support' to the list of available search engines, but this does not happen when I'm on google.co.uk!

Thanks in advance for any sugestions.
