a guy that worked at my uncles car yard started to use those "magic" boxes to wind back the odometeres on the cars in the yard.. unfortunately he fled the state and my uncle was there to cop the fine of $26,000 and a further $15,000 per car with a total of 16 cars.. he also lost his traders lisence.. to turn back an odometre without getting fined i think u need a stat dec from the cops stating the original km's so b careful what you say dr bob haha

i repair instruments as part of my job, its a bit different doing it in a caryard to 16 cars, he deserved everything he got. What he was doing was illegal.

i think you can still buy the guage new from Holden
if not theres plenty of lvl3 clusters around that have trip module problems so you should be able to get a fuel guage from somewhere.

so your uncle owned the yard & didnt know the people working there were whizzing odometers?

can you list all the part numbers for the trip display module for all the VN VP VR VS L3 clusters please, i know theres a different number for the V6 & V8 ones, im trying to find out exactly what the difference is.
