Yes, as long as it's mechanical.

Just feature which allows you to keep track of specific miles (press the button and the odometer sets to zero). Most don't work. There is a fix, however:

Gas mileage? No.

It tells you how many miles you've driven since hitting the reset button.

Simply swap the mechanical speedo head in and you'll be good to go.
