Default Chrysler neon.....

so i just bought a 2002 CHRYSLER Neon from the dealership i work at for 1100 bucks. pretty good shape. loaded nice car. only problem is its from Canada and everything is in KM. any way to change this? i have a 2001 plymouth neon at home but its been through some water but all of the electronic stuff still works its just the smell. would it be possible to switch clusters AND retain the mileage on this new car while using the other cluster?

You can switch the cluster but since the mileage is stored on the cluster, you will get the mileage from the previous vehicle in which the cluster was originally from.

You would have to ask your local dealer, i think it can be but i'm not sure.
You can't get overlays becuase you still wouldn't have a tach.

you can use the cluster from your other neon, and if you are worried about the mileage issues and the laws about them, then you can get a Federally approved form from DMV to record actual mileage and keep with vehicle and just add that mileage the accumulated mileage on the new speedometer. so when you go and sell it everything is legit.
