Convert Miles to Km

Heya all,
I've just got my first RX-7('93 with only 14k miles) and have a quick question:

it shows the total distance traveled in miles and we kinda only work in kms over here so.... any "simple" way to change it from showing in miles to kms?
The speedometer has both miles and kms on it.

Thanks in advance.

Guys, he's talking about converting the actual display "in the car" to kilometers, not just in his head.

You might check with fdnewbie and see if any of his gauge clusters would help. He's a member here. Look him up in the member's list and PM him. If it does, it would be simple....not necessarily cheap.
