I thought there was some way to increase the milage on the new cluster though? Like, you can't set the milage backward, but you could set it forward.


can be changed both ways ! is just not legal to do it.

Not quite right. It is illegal to make out that the car has done less miles than it really has. You can set the miles to anything you like as long as you clearly document the old and new readings at the time of swapping and make it clear to the buyer the actual mileage of the car. I believe the true mileage is stored in the engine computer anyway (thou there is probably a way of changing this, too).
