You DEFINITELY do not need replace the entire speedometer assembly.

Because the 986 has redundant speedometers (Digital plus Analogue) you only need one of them in KM to pass inspection.

Simply twist and hold the odometer/clock switch for 10 seconds (or so) and you will see the digital speedometer and odometer flip over to km. Bring it into Canadian tire like that and you are good to go. That is of course if you also did the DRL hack that you already mentioned.

Being in Quebec, the only thing you may need to worry about is having a French/English Airbag warning sticker. They don't really check it here in BC but you could run into trouble there.
