Default ppl with roush/autometer clusters

when u put the cluster in, did your vehicle retain the knowlage of miles on the car? im looking to get a roush cluster but im not sure if i need to swap the chip in the back into the new cluster or not.

I had the Simco Ltd cluster in my GT. You actually have to transfer the odometer over to the new cluster. The Simco required the whole circuit board and odometer. If you don't do this then the car will not start because of the PATS.

It probably took about 20 minutes. If you don't get instuctions for it, maybe get the Simco instructions online.

I liked them. I think they look a lot better than the overlays. They are ridiculously bright when they are set at the brightest but that isn't much of a problem.
