Canada to USA Cluster flash KM to Mi ?

Not sure if I can do this with my SDS with Xentry? I am purchasing A Canadian CL600 a Canadian Citizen brought here to the USA, And I have a letter from MB USA saying its the same car as the US version but the IC needs re-flash to change it from KM to MI . This is before I can do the US customs import and US registration..............So can I do this somehow with STAR or must I go to the dealer? It is a 2007 CL600 W216 with a 146,000KM on it .I guess about 80,000 something miles.............Any help will be cool Thanx John

You should be able to change it using the settings menu in the IC via the steering wheel buttons..…..

Thanx ILUVMILS but I tried that by reading the manual that came with the car. It does allow you to add an additional MPH speedo next to the KM Speedo but everything else remains KM including the main speedo. Not good enough for US Customs and Border Protection DOT/NHTSA . I have tried to do it with my STAR Xentry but the IC blanks out during the reflash and then pops back in KM again.
Maybe I can do something with those special menus in German

Used IC???

What if I purchase a used IC on like an auction site as I have seen them for $80 to $150 range all day long. But when I code it to my car using the old IC will it just transfer it the same way back to KM??????????????
