Well, that's sort of why I said to get a cluster that has lower miles than your car. Better safe than sorry. |
How do you check the cluster mileage though? I wouldn't trust a cluster off eBay where seller say it has x number of miles. You should always Power the cluster on a bench and check first.  |
