Changing it to km? Unless you find pushing a button hard, it's not hard at all.

haha that question made me laugh
theres 2 buttons on the guages the one on the right resets the trip meter. the other changes km and vice versa. (if i remember)

no worries, it took me a year to find that out haha

hmm.

well if you're telling the truth (about the accident)

then first off, I feel really sorry for your lost. hope everything goes well in the future.

and you just need a friend (you have one right?) to push and hold one of the buttons for 3 seconds and it will be change.


but if you are lying about the accident, just die.
