I'm not 100% sure but I don't think this is possible.

I suppose it's possible, but it's more than just the instrument display -- there must be sensors and connections that need to be made to provide the information that the thing displays.

Let me tell you, though, I just went from an XLE, with the multi-information display, to an SE, that lacks it. The opposite of what you're talking about. So, do I miss it?

Well, as others have mentioned, the MPG calculation is never correct, reading somewhere more than 1.5 MPH than you're actually getting. As for the Cruising Range, I went 40 miles beyond the point where it showed "zero," and still had more than a gallon left in the tank.

So, "why bother" with all of this information, when it's not really accurate at all? I'm doing quite well without it -- no problem at all.

you are so right. why go through all the hassle to have one of these just to
get inaccurate readings. totally not worth it.

on the other hand a lip kit would be worth it

Thanks all.

yesturday I spoke with Official TOYOTA Statiton, They have told that it is possible to change, But there can be a difference depending on the country of the manufacturer of the cars

I hope everything will be all right and there will be no problems whis METER

Tomorrow I shall go to change the METER. I shall necessarily write, how I established, and I shall show photos of installation
