Odometer reflash in GTA
Hey guys, workin on a new project soon, involving speedometer/gauge cluster goodness. Since I will be getting a new cluster in, unless God DOES exist, the odometer reading will be off, I'm sure. SOOOOOO..since I'm a stickler for detail, I refuse to deal with a sticker that says "ADD 40K to this reading". I want the original milage (kilometrage?) reading on the NEW odometer. I just need someone to flash the old milage onto the new odometer, either from my ECU or from the old reading, written on a stained bar napkin. I know this can be done, I know I'm tiptoeing the thin line of legality (but not like I'm rolling BACK anyway), but my question is: Is there any person/shop in the GTA that can do this? Please reply or PM, otherwise, there will be less pimpage for TeLLy....

Rep Power: 368 Either take it apart for essential parts (ie making my own Civic-to-*swapped cluster* harness), or modding it LED-style and selling to the highest bidder. This will all have to wait till I get my Hayames in of course. And the damn body work. When will this ever end?

Rep Power: 368 So you're saying if I were to swap my cluster out, and put a new lower-milage one in, there would be no way to get the actual milage from the ECU? Sorry man, but I think you've got it wrong.
As for gettin the odometer reflashed with the old one's milage reading, I know it's physically possible, I've seen the equipment for sale on various websites and even ebay. I can't justify spending $2000 for it though.
