Press the right steering wheel spoke button and hold it until Settings displays in the
instrument panel. Press to advance through Language and Metric. When Metric is
up just tap and choose. Let's see...200 KMPH equals 123 MPH...

A quick look through the 2000/2001 manual does not show the steps I outlined
from more recent models. You may be correct in that you need to replace the
speed sensor to set this up. I am surprised it is not a user changeable setting
because we use them both when driving to and from Canada.
