Default 05 Spectra5 gauge cluster

I was digging around online looking for some parts for my car and stumbled upon this gauge cluster. The website says its for Cerato, which from what I've found is the same as the Spec5. I was wondering if anyone know where I can find this cluster with MPH increments. Here is the link to the website I found it on. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If it is for a Cerato then the speedo will read in km. There may be other small differences, I'm not sure. If you want a U.S. cluster then head on over to Ebay and you wil find many. Remember this tho, the mileage is stored on the cluster so the mileage will read the mileage from the car it came out of.

bradc2009...
If you like the color (white) then order and replace the stock "pea green" LEDs with white... I replaced them both in my 06 and my wife's 07 Spectra. They really look great. Info on replacing them on StreetKiaz.com

Hey guys, would it be possible to use a gauge cluster from an 08 in my 05.

I a'nt say for sure but, I would guess that there might be some differences in the circuits on the cluster board. The guage layout is different, I do know that much. I have not heard of anyone trying this either. Why do'nt you play mad scientist and try it? Then you could report back and share the results with everyone. A factoid...the mileage is stored on the cluster meaning the new cluster will readout the mileage of the car it came out of.
