No. This is my replacement Skyactiv one. Something happened with the dials when I had the old one apart. So I ordered another one, it came with 9500 kQuote:

It's perfectly legal until you get caught.
I used to do this (export trucks from CA to US). We drove the trucks to a certified dealer, removed the cluster, they converted and we reinstalled.
The key was documentation. They had to use cameras with film (no digital allowed; to easy to doctor).
I'm sure things have changed now though to a certain degree. This was about 15 years ago. Same cluster though to, just changed the cluster plates so they were imperial as the primary measurement.
We do it at work some times, Our cars store the mileage in 10 different modules. Not in the cluster. Of course the cars require proper programming after.Quote:

My 05 3 had it done at the dealership as well
