Default Switching from mph to kph and visa versa

Hi

Heading off on a road trip down to Italy next weekend, was thinking it would be nice to be able to switch to kph whilst I was abroad, is this possible? Is there some witchcraft like combo of buttons you can press to achieve this?

Cheers
Stu

Press and hold the "SEL" button in the gauge cluster, should switch from MPH to KPH.

It does here in the States.

Don't forget to switch it back, or you will be a one man traffic jam!

Remember if you do this, the fuel tank switches to metric capacity - so you will have more fuel....

How can you own a car and not know what all (not many on an s2000) the buttons do?!

Lol, well when you put it like that it sounds bad :-)
My (poor) excuse is I've only owned the car for a little under 3 weeks and have been pretty much flat out since so have only read through little bits of the manual here and there!
