Question Computer: MPH to KPH

Disclaimer: I know of at least two times this thread has been posted (1st I recently bumped, but is in the wrong forum, and still no answers; 2nd didn't have any answers last time I checked, and I cannot find it using the search), so although this is a repost, I feel this may be the only way to get the information I need. Sorry guys.

How can the Computer be changed from MPH to KPH? This would be very useful for those of us that travel back and forth between Canada and the US.

Cheers! -Mike
Edited to remove work extension number... frickin' work...

you have to change the 3 gauge pods. The one in metric (km/h, bar, lt/100km, etc) has a small transformer like chip in the back where the plug in is, and that's what changes the measurements. I changed mine when moving down to the states a few months ago. Just scoop one up from a local nissan dealer for around $200 I think...can't remember the exact price.

Damn... I was really hoping I could switch back and forth easily. Don't really want to take apart my guage cluster every time I cross the border.
