people do it all the time when they import cars from the states to change it from imperial to metric
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.
Dealers are capable of swapping clusters for you however proper documentation will be required. Someone I know had an 05 civic with a defective cluster, dealer put a brand new one in (under warranty) and put a sticker in the door, stating actual mileage. My 05 3 had it done at the dealership as well

Pfft 16k. I wish. 261 910k.
They say I'm an addict but I don't have a problem with alcohol or drugs. I'm an addict because I can't live without bass. Car audio is my addiction. And it will never change.
