Speedo in KM/H

Hi all,
Question about the digital readout in the dash. Since I live in Germany it's a good idea to have the readout in KMH in the middle. However no matter what I do it shows it smaller on the bottom, where the P R N D is on the Automatics and it will show MPH in big so I can see both. I want to see KMH in large display but apparently that is not possible or i'm missing the menu or something. Even if I the units into KM it shows my Odometer in KM but when you flip screens to where it should show the large display it still shows miles.
has anyone with a 6 Speed been able to get it to show KMH big?

thanks,
Shawn

Yes, why is the small display along with the clock is always in Km/hr?
Can it be changed to MPH. I lived in California. Sometimes I used the display for AUDIO and would like to see the speed display MPH instead of Km/hr. Is there a way to set it. Thanks.
