I dont know if i would have changed the cluster, when you have a car, especially like that one, with under 100K original, you might come across a point that you need to be able to prove it. But, since you've done that already, I guess you have a mileage fault.

Certifit is also known as "sorta-fit" as their bumpers and such tend to not fit very well.

dam that is clean, it looks a lot like my 98dx with only 56k org miles. I would deff keep the stock cluster out of the car just to show the actual mileage.
