If it's not sold in Canada then where did my car get one Any OEM part on any North American manufactured automobile must be available through the dealer network. For example - think warranty claims. It's available here - just the price is wacked (as usual). Saskman has a P/N too.

If what is said above is true (the mechanical/electical is the same, so the needles are in the same position, but the face of the gauges simply have different print) then I say just order from the states. Do you really need to see them in metric units? Or better question, do you really look at these gauges Srsly.... I love mine, and I do glance at them on start up etc., but other than the cool visual effect of being down there, they're basically useless. It's about the opposite of HUD. Not easy/safe to read while driving - eyes too far from the road. Cool idea carried over from the 60s.
