The odometer will be the same as the one that the car came from. So it will be the same as the one from the Camaro.

So what if someone wanted to perform odometer fraud..... :rolleyes:

haha not reset to 0 miles lol, i wanted it to reset to what my odometer is so i can have a new cluster instead of on old dirty scratch one [img]tongue.gif[/img]

O ok that is easy to do sort of. What you have to do is take both clusters apart and just trade out the odometer. It takes about an hour and is really straight forward. I did it on my 00 and it was easy.

oh, that sounds like what im gonna do, did u just do it ur self or is there like instructions on how to do it some where?

[RSFireDog]

is there a way to reset the odometer on the digital ones?

The mileage is stored in the computer anyway. You could get busted.

O no its not :D
I cheated my odometer all the time. There is a fuse you can pull to turn it off.

[hockyman88]

haha what fuse would that be ;)

Well for the 98+ it is the fuse labeled gages in the interior fusebox. Be aware that that shuts off all of your guages but you can still use your cruise control.
