TAMPERING WITH THE ODOMETER IS A CRIME. You are required by law, when selling a car, to provide accurate odometer information. Even when doing an engine swap, the miles are on the chassis.
HOWEVER.. in some places you can swap an odometer with another one, and adjust the odometer back to where its supposed to be.
with intent to defraud

VDO writeup will be added to the original post by the weekend. Once again my way of doing it is the least intrusive in my opinion. Thanks for the support on the thread!Last edited by RagtopE30; 01-05-2011, 06:23 PM.

Nice write up! I wish this was around when I swapped out speedometers about 8 months ago. I had to match mileage (in this case kilometers) and I just kinda forced the numbers past the "keepers" to make the adjustment.Last edited by Dirtboy; 02-21-2011, 06:35 AM.

Great. Now there will be a shitload of low mileage E30's for sale now. Good info here for those who want to update to their actual mileage on engine or chassis or whatever."I'd probably take the E30 M3 in this case just because I love that little car, and how tanky that inline 6 is." - thecj
