Default Canadian Speedometer for 2009 RX 350

Hello, does anyone know where I can purchase a Canadian (metric) speedometer for my car? I imported mine from the US so MPH is prominent while KMH is quite a bit smaller. I would like these 2 reversed.

Is there anywhere online that I can order it and how much does something like this cost?

Thanks in advance

it may be a dealer only item. i know just before i left acura, they odometer required the OEM scan tool to swap over. this was for the TSX for sure. we had to hook up the scan tool, record the odometer information, swap over the gauge cluster, then upload the recorded info. i am not sure what would happen if we didnt do this, didnt want to find out.

i think you will want to leave it as is once you find a price.

Try car-part.com. It's a website that searches all the junk yards. Instrument cluster replacement is a very easy DIY job.

I own a RX330 from the US, I never even gave any thought about swapping the speedometer to KMs.....
since there are only 2 really vital speed limits to be concerned about in Canada, Highway/ 100 KM is 60 MPH per hour & City/ 50 KM is 30 MPH per hour.
Then again if you constantly drive the car like you stole it, it is always good to know if your next speeding ticket was accurately calculated.
