if you just unbolt it, that will null the speedometer, but wont it also cause you not to put any more miles on the clock? heh if your car is leased and you dont want to go over your limit you can do that

fraud, its fantastic! its gotta be easier than turning back the odo, but if your gauges are digital thats the only thing you can do is disconnect the speedo

yeah, i had that done with mine for a bit haha. then i realized i could just turn back the odometer instead of having it not hooked up, either way is hella illegal though.
