Default Speedometer

My speedometer has "Miles" as its units but I am more comfortable with "km". Is it possible to just change the face of the speedometer to those with the "km" units, or do I have to change the whole speedometer unit? Is there anywhere I can get these guage faces as my porsche dealer won't sell just guage faces, i was told that I have to purchase the whole panel including the speedometer, techcometer et al. Many thanks.

The digital speedo readout can be changed to KMH from MPH by turning one of the two ***** (can't remember if it is the right or left ****) on the speedo to the left/right and holding it for a few seconds. The exact instructions are in the owner's manual. I use the digital speedo rather than the analog anyway. Unless you have a preference for using the analog speedometer, my suggestion would save you the expense of changing the whole unit.

Thanks for the suggestion. The digital one is already set to km but I still prefer to use analogue guage. I am a bit old fashioned.
