Default Over Speed Warning

Is there any way to program a non-export C6 to display the Over Speed Warning? My friend who lives out of the country needs to program it into his C6 and is not sure how. Can he go to a Chevrolet dealer or can he buy a C6 tuner?

Here is what I am talking about:

It is in Kilometers..the 320 gives it away.

If you go into the menu you should be able to set a warning to come on at whatever desired speed you wish.

dang... i want that speedo. currently mine reads tops at 220 and simply uses the kmp/h 'lamp' to indicate kilos. sure would be a blast to have the speedo that tops at 320. remember how it was when we were kids. all we did was look at the speedo and who ever had the highest number was the 'fastest'. yes, i know, i know, the speedo has no correlation to top speed. i'm just saying it would be 'fun'.

Also the KM/H in green on the speedo......
My old BMW had the over speed alert, never seen it on a Vette though.

am not sure about the US spec vettes ..but ours here cant change them from the options menu ...
the only way i think is to change the cluster to Canadian spec ..so u can get the speed in KMH and u will not get the over speed warning ..
