Default Switching miles to km's

I've searched but can't seem to find if there is a thread showing how to switch the odo and the info displays from miles to km's?

Can anyone please help?

OK, just b/c of this thread, I figured it out on my 05 GX:

1. Menu
2. Screen setting (lower right corner)
3. Second one under "Calibration"---------> km or mi

Did it work? Did it change the display on the odometers from miles to km? That's what the original poster had asked.
I tried it on mine, and all it did was to change the navi displays from miles to km.

Well, the odometer is a needle display.
Not sure if it changes the display on the clock readout with gas mileage readout.

I didn't even check to see if it works....I would be lost in km readings...j/k

I believe you can only change it on the nav, not on the dash.

The odometer is not a needle display. That is the speedometer. The odometer is the the little diplay that has a numerical display telling you how many miles you have travelled.

Thanks for the corrections
Wow, didn't know what I was thinking when I typed that.

I'll just keep my mouth shut from here on
