Changing climate control to Celsius

I tried searching for this but couldn't find an answer. If there is a thread on this please excuse me. So my question is, is there a way to change the climate control on the BRZ Limited to read in Celsius instead of Fahrenheit (like on all the other BRZs not sold in the US). Could this be done through TechStream?

Thank you!

I think its based on the region the twins are sold. Just like how we get the mph and others receive kmh. Pretty sure you would have to change the whole unit.

You can press a button to change between Mi and Km.

I think you can change ECU settings to get this done; I'm still searching.

I was referring to the analog gauge not the digital.

You need to change instrumental cluster (dash) if you wish to have measurements in Celsius (been there, done that). It is also possible to reflash your current cluster (so it would have miles, but Celsius on climate controls). Techstream cannot help in this case.

BRZ Limited = dual digital climate control.
There is nothing analog about what is on the BRZ Limited.

Source: I own one.

Edit: what @cmihaylov wants is this:

Why wouldn't they make an option to switch between the two? It's weird because I can see the little dot and the third digit as shown in the pictures above. I guess it is what it is then.

That was so the OP to have his climate control display in Celsius, instead of in Fahrenheit.
I also don't recall seeing it an option in TechStream.

Not sure if it was said since I didn't read all the comments but reset the ECU (unplug battery for a bit). Upon restart it should ask what units you want everything in.
