i think the only legal way to do it is to take it to an approved shop, have them roll it back, they would also have to report it i would think, and they might only do it if you had proof that your original cluster had to be replaced

The whole unit comes apart...its just a little tedious to work with but you can switch the the two odometer's itself...You can also roll em back and all that stuff, just be ready to do some tedious work and be careful when working on these delicate parts. Many peeps have done it. if you need white gauges (if that's the base of your switching clusters), just get some reverse indiglo gauges for like 40 bucs or so...much better idea than going thru the hassle of switching odometer. This is an easier job as well as compared to switching odometers.

btw, i got an extra set of reverse indiglo gauges if you're interested...email [email protected]

I know a clock doctor who will change the miles for you for a small fee. It would require you to ship the cluster to him. You can e-mail me and i can tell you more about it.
