As some of you know I am now stationed in South Korea where the speed limits are posted in Kilometers. I am having a hard time with my Accord though because I can barely read the Km scale(inner ring) on my speedometer.

Does anyone know of a place where I can get a new face plate that has Km's instead of Mph as the large back-lit numbers? I tried doing a google search for gauge face plates or gauge assemblies for sale in the UK, Japan, etc. but keep striking out.:dunno:

I guess you need to get a Canadian instrument cluster, they would in KPH, I'm just not sure if the entire cluster assembly is plug-and-play with the U.S. cars.

In Poland i had the same problem.
Actually is gone. When I see (60) I'm driving (60) - miles:thmsup:

But... maybe You try to make "home made" project using any CAD-application and then made it by LASER-method.

Thank you all for the replies. I will have to look into the Canadian Accord face plate/gauge assembly.
