Changing Kilometers to Miles on Buick GN

Does anyone know how to change the Kilometer per hour reading on this gauge to MPH. I believe the Odometer is read in Kilometers also( I have to check it) and if so that can't be changed but the Digital part should be able to.

Thanks
Here is a link to see what I'm talking about.

I know that 100kph is equal to 60mph, I will search for a conversion chart

Code:
MPH		  KPH
15		  25
25		  40
35		  55
45		  70		  
55		  90
65		  105
75		  120

They make a part that screws in between you speedo cable and your transmission it converts MPH to kMh. if you have a ditigal dash just switch it to metric and you have a 140 MPH gauge. if you have the analog dash you need to buy the diffrent face plate and you have a 140MPH speedo. they also off alot of other stuff for turbo 3.8liter (231 CID) engines. I have many of friends that have motors and trannies built by them and when I get the money i plan to buy one of his trannys. just give them a call and thell hook you up

I know this is a little off topic, but here goes anyway:

In the 1997-present park avenue, there is a speedo guage, with only markings for mph. if you press the english/metric button at 60 mph, the needle wooms to 100 on the speedo. you can really fool your friends with that, haha, I wonder what the 0-60kmph is?
