I did that with an old 1988 Saab Turbo. The instrument panel failed and I
went online and found one from a car dismantler in Ontario. Saabs in Canada
do not have miles inside the km on the speedometer.
The 1999 Saab I drive now has an analog speedometer in mph on the outside
and km on the inside (both lit). The car's computer can be switched from
colonial to metric with a few button pushes. (This does not change the
odometer.) This also sets the heater/AC temperature buttons to Celsius.
Newer Saabs have an outer ring on the temperature setting and you are stuck
with Fahrenheit.
