US gauge conversion??

I have sold my 02 Ram to a gentleman from the states. It was born as a Canadian Ram. Does anyone know if I can get an overlay for the instruments to make them imperial? If not where to get a US cluster other than new from a dealer as they want about $500 US. I understand the odometer can be programmed to read miles by the dealer.<br>Any info / help would be appreciated

The white face overlay from diesel Dan is all imperial. I put one on my Dodge which is from canada and its all converted to the US system nicely. Look at THIS thread about 1/2 way down its got a pic.

Got it figured out now. You change the VSS and the dash overlay, reprogram the mileage and you are away! I have to get a gov't certified shop to do it for me though in order to have the mileage certified as actual. Cost is going to be $295 Cdn for the whole deal 8)
