Default any way to change odometer reading?

sup guys, well i had broken my temp gauge, i bought a new cluster off ebay, this cluster i bought off ebay had 50k miles on it, my car has over 120k miles on it, is there any way i can set the odometer so it reads the miles my car really has, this would look really bad if i had to sell the car, is it possible?.. i would think so i mean.. someone has to need a new cluster one day and there stuck with that mileage?...

Just take the cluster apart, which is really easy just a couple screws. You remove the speedometer in the new cluster and replace with your speedometer with the correct mileage. I just did it with my CX hb, I swap the speedometer from my CX with 150k which has the odometer on it and put it in an ex cluster. The speedometer gauge is the same for all the models (U.S. that it for 92-95 civics).
