Hey guys Ive read all about this but still unsure about something. I never saw this mentioned. If I have a 99 base 5spd no tach, would it be best to stay with the digital odometer and get a 5spd with tach cluster from another 99, or can i go mechanical odometer with no more hassle. Id rather go mechanical. Thanks.
I root for the underdog...figured I might as well be one
 
your will only work with another igital. you have no mechanical options at all. 
 
 
i just grabbed a digital one out of a 99z, no hassles til the car was totaled
 
 
If you grab another digital one from a diff vehicle you need to have either a dealer or a spedometer shop adjust the milage because then tis odometer fraud.  Note this only applies to 98-99 digital ones.  2000 and Up are all BCM driven.  And no the 2000 and up's do not interchange into the 98-99 models
 
BCM? So In my 01, I can take another cluster from an 01 and its plug and play?
 
Yep.  Just did mine last friday.  Sunfire to Cav, vice versa.   Plug and play.
Gotta keep on livin', L-I-V-I-N
 
 
how much do speedo shops charge to change the mileage and how much do the dealers charge?
