Default 2000 Civic si cluster on my 97 civic hx question

so this guy wants to trade me my cluster in my hx
for his 2000 civic si cluster with 75 dollars on top

but my question is,
since i have a hx, does that mean everything will be the exact same on the si cluster?
even the green dummy arrow light that tells you when to shift?

also, the si cluster has 177xxx miles on it and mine has 130xxx so would it be easy to put the si cluster back to 130xxx miles? to roll it back or whateveR?

so that means everything else will work besides the green arrow (dummy light) ?

all the gauges and the rpms, and the fuel tanks, and speedometer should all be accurate just as the stock one in my car?
thanks for the help by the way man, im just trying to learn

That's not something I've done, so I can't tell you. There may also be legal issues to consider.

well nothing is illegal because im not frauding the miles, im actually setting the miles right back to normal, selling the car with the si cluster that has 177xxx miles on it when my car doesnt have that many miles is illegal (:

but thanks,
ill try to see if anyone else knows how to roll them back

miles on an old vehicle don't really matter im sure if u try rolling it back u will most likely break it.. after 100k most cars do not loose much in value because it cost more to repair and replace things more frequently. if u want the look of the si cluster which i believe is over rated then swap. if ur fine with the one u have keep it. most si clusters are selling from 150-180. it will all plug and play also 97-01 crv clusters will plug and play in your hx.

I doubt it. Plus no one will tell you on here how to do it because although in your case it may be legal, people can use the same method illegally.

no they wont, cause unless i'm mistaken i believe its illegal to roll back miles in any situation, period. They will (i've seen a couple dealers do it, not sure if they all do) sell you the speedometer assembly(NEW) and roll it to the miles you request
