We just need to find someone who has a paddle... Maybe a YW member in Europe or Japan who's Yaris has the mileage section active.

I don't think all hope has to be given up. Does the plastic cover on the cluster help angle the display more towards the RHD or is the VFD the part that is angled really far over?

The plastic cover is flat like on the USDM ones. All the smoke and mirrors happens behind there.

I haven't done much more with the OZ one. I am still trying to figure out the protocol for the odometer when using an ABS cluster on a non ABS car. I have the speedo working, but still can't get the odo correct. So far it either increments way too slow or way too fast.

As for figuring out the MPG / kML display for you, we need someone with a Yaris that has the fuel economy display working in their country to do a CAN bus capture for me to figure out the messaging from the ECM to the cluster that makes that display active. If we can find a volunteer, I can supply the CAN bus sniffer.

Are there left hand drive digital clusters out there? Seems to me I saw one on an acceleration video.

I guess a left hand drive digital cluster would be the HOLY GRAIL for us here in the USA. Sort of like a left handed monkey wrench? Actually I think it's what Toyota supplies to Germany, France, Italy etc.

After my frustration with the RHD one I'll be going with the Yargauge which in it's own way IS digital and analog --- so Scott has invented the Hybrid cluster which probably gets the best mileage?

Having a digital cluster would be very cool if there would be some way to convert it from kilometers to US miles. Is that realistically possible?

Yes. The digital clusters have text on them for km and miles. The can be reprogrammed to switch from one mode to the other via the techstream tool.
