Default Digital Speedo and Posted Speed Limit Display

Hi,
I have a '20 F-Type R and the digital speedo and speed limit sign are rather small and difficult to see in the upper portion of the center message center. In order to position the steering wheel for my comfort, it blocks the small display. Is there a way to program the speedo and speed limit in the center of the message center? I know there is a large display to the left of the steering wheel, but I much prefer the digital display, there's no guessing.

Thanks

Yours is newer than either of mine, but that sort of thing is configured in the menu accessed from the steering wheel controls.

I tried the menu settings on the steering wheel
and was unable to find a setting to address
this.

I don't have the forward facing camera in my MY!8 F-Type but I've never seen any way to change the position of the digital speed display. I've also never had a problem with seeing it through the steering wheel, so maybe it's a question of whether the adjustments suit your driving position.

That's what I thought. I'll just find a sweet spot and put it in memory.
Thanks

wait, you have a large display on the left of your steering wheel? Pictures, please. I also have a 2020 R but I only have a screen in the middle of the speedometer and tachometer.

Your setup is the same as mine. Perhaps I described it incorrectly. I have the speedo on the left and tach on the right with the display screen ( info panel) in the middle. This is shown on pg. 44 in the owners manual.

oh, i haven't had any problems so far. i don't really pay attention to the speed signs on there because I don't think it's completely accurate. it displays the speed sign of the last sign it read so in my community we have no speed signs and the car displayed 40 which is not appropriate for a neighborbood community.

I agree the digital speedo is too small and too up.
I also noticed that they are two different graphics of the cluster, perhaps pre and post 2016 facelift? One have straight gas/temp gauges and one have curved. I don't know if they are any other differences
