Question: Speedometer and Air conditioner discs for 2013 ML350‏ MILES to KM

Hello ,
I have purchased 2013 Mercedes Benz ML350 and I want to change Speedometer from Miles to Kilometers plus Air conditioner discs from F to C .


I just found Speedometer and Air conditioner discs that I can order form Germany and I would like to ask is there any body shop or a specialist who can replace these discs?
I live in Dallas , TX

Kind regards,

It would be no exaggeration to say that I'm absolutely a metric systems fanatic but still I wouldn't want anybody to take my instrument cluster apart to change the display discs! I'd be very worried about damage to the instruments.


I'd be more inclined to change out the whole of the two instrument units. (Even used units if necessary.) Presumably such a change could work but the onboard computer setting would probably have to be left in the imperial unit setting for the analogue speedometer to give the correct reading for speed.


The swop for the temperature dial discs shouldn't be a problem.

Thank you for replaying ,, you are the person who reading my mind and what I am concerned when I change the speedometer to KM especially I can do this by the trip setting, I am really hesitated to do this and I am afraid from sound that could comes because of opening the dashboard or changing the instrument panel.


And about the temperature dial discs it doesn't make sense now but it will be more comfortable to me and it easy to change especially I will ship the car to my country and it will effect on the car price if I want to decide to sold it.


Thanks again!!
