Default Digital speedometer mod for 2006 IS350?

I love the analog speedometer needles, but is there any sort of mod I can do to add or modify the gauge cluster to have a digital speedometer? Sometimes its nice to have an exact speed. What are my options?

On a side note, is a 2014 IS F sport gauge cluster swap possible with a 2IS? I really love the 2014 F sport gauge cluster so I was wondering if it has been done before or is even possible.

I like having a digital speedo myself but I installed a Grom Vline to my Oem Nav screen and use the Waze Navi app with has a built in digital Speedo on the top right corner next to the current speed limit sign. Does the trick for now although I’d love a digital Speedo on the cluster itself. Maybe try one of those Obd HUD Speedo things?

Yes, it's possible to have a digital speedometer using the 11-14 isf cluster. The isf cluster is a direct bolt on to the 2is, the only thing that will not work and will always blink is the oil temp guage,, i did the mode on my 12 is350, work perfectly, just took it to cluster techs to swap my mileage. I'm based in South Africa by the way

IIRC the oil temp also limits RPM on the IS-F until oil is at operating temp which implies its on the CAN bus looking for an input which it will never get from the ISX50 ECM ECU.

What about the oil pressure? Our ISX50 doesn't have sender for pressure. Only low pressure (on/off) when you engine is dead. What does your IS-F gauge indicate for pressure?

Maybe a picture?
