i was going to, but then i decided to get the overlays. but i heard that the dealership will change the miles for you, if you can show proof of the miles and where they are supposed to be, etc. just bring a lot of documents and ur old cluster.

its always a lot there. there are always good deals on ebay or junkyard. stealership will screw you. I bought a gxe cluster and carefully took it apart and changed it accordingly to my old cluster. Not hard, just gotta be VERY VERY VERY VERY careful.

I bought my SE cluster couple years ago. The mileage was only 2K off, so I just kept it like that. Changing the cluster was pretty simple. If you do open it up, be careful with the needles.

I bought a cluster, but I need to change the mileage on it, I tried messing around with one of them but, it seem to move rather slowly. I need to add 25k on mine. Anyone know how to do it? an easier way than changing a mile at a time?

replacing cluster is easy as ****.......just do not go to dealer. I am sure it will be weel above $300 for the cluster. That little plastic cover on the engine here at the dealship runs $135.95. Just think how much the cluster would cause. junk yard, or they are always on ebay.
