Tricky question - It depends.
Hi Bob,
Welcome to the forum. Always good to have yet more folk here to share LR stuff with. It's always good to share. A problem halved and all that.
I'm not sure that there is much that can be done with your instrument cluster other than replacement. I know some instrument technicians out there have produced replacement template mattes for the dials so this may be a possibility for your KPH only speedometer. I have, on occasion, seen these templates appear on the web (places like FleaPay and such)
I know that the trip computer can be programmed to work in either miles or kilometres for all of it's functions so this would tend to suggest that it may be as simple as changing the Vehicle Configuration File to make the car work in KPH and KMs travelled. This can only be achieved by someone with diagnostic equipment capable of editing the VCF. This is usually a stealer or indy service centre. It can be done if there's someone out there with a non VIN locked Faultmate too.
I'm no expert in this stuff but I think given that a large part of the early L322s were based on BMW electronic systems they probably already work in KMs and just do the math on the fly.
Others more conversant out there may be able to offer more enlightened guidance. My suspicion is that it may actually be fairly straightforward.
That's my 2c worth. Hope this helps some.
Cheers,
Iain
