110-145 MPH Gauge Cluster Swap
110-145 MPH Gauge Cluster Swap
Ok, I have a 91 Z28 with the 110 MPH cluster. My 145 MPH unit arrived today and I had previously asked about whether or not it was just a plug and play. I was told go ahead and just swap them out, but now my question is this: What about the odometer? My odometer reads 63k and the new one is like 173k. Is there a way to just swap one odometer to the other, and if so, isn't this borderline illegal?

i believe it is pretty illegal. while it is logical. best of luck, hell if your good u could roll it back
I do not suggest anything illegal just give ideas.

So if I want the 145 MPH cluster, the sacrifice I make is my odometer reading 173k? I don't think this is the case, because even that would be "altering" my odometer readout. This has to be a common swap, I just need to hear from someone who has done it.

On the mechanical units, you can swap the odometer rolls between the heads. You can probably do the same somehow on the electronic ones.
You can check with your local DMV on the legality of changing the odometer reading. For example, in some places you can do it as long as you put a sticker on the car showing what the old and new odometer readings were when the swap was made.
