Metric gauge face

Anyone know where I can get a set of Metric guage faces(kilometers OUTSIDE, mph INSIDE)? Lots of aftermarket ones available but all in mph. Also, I have heard that the odometer can be re-programmed to read in km instead of mph. Is this true?

 

i too am looking for the same thing...i hear the dealership are the ones that doo it...but i have yet to confirm it.

 

I'm also interested in a metric faceplate for the speedometer.

 

Yours still has KMPH on the bottom, correct?

 

^right now yes, mph outside kph inside

 

look into seeing if the HILUX guages are the same size/style as the tacoma's if so I'm sure they are in KMh

 

well we could easily get the oem tacoma gauges from a canadian dealership, but its very expensive

 

I priced them today at the local dealership. Close to $600 as they say you can't buy just the face, you have to buy the whole gauge cluster. I haven't had my dash apart yet to call BS on that one. I know in my old GM the faces just sat on the gauge and came off when you pulled the needle. Any one know a wrecking yard that specializes in late model Tacos?(In Canada?)

 

Here's a link to tayotanation.com where someone replaced the amber dash lights with white ones. The faceplate comes off. Toyota just doesn't sell the faceplates separately.
