I needed it because I bought some indiglo gauges and they don't go with my current set of gauges. I was wondering.. does anyone know how to turn back the miles on the new cluster set ? I know its illegal but the new set that I bought has 70,000 miles on it, and currently, mine only has 30,000 big difference! Thanks everyone! -MikeyChes 95 Contour GL V6 30,000 Miles & Counting - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - KenWood KDC-MPV619 Mp3 Player Indiglo Gauges DUAL SERIES PL-300W

(if you have to though turn the milage with a drill or something fast and go forward- not back- you cant go back these days- just go forward adn then over to 0 again and then to 30K '98 SVT #2253 Currently DEAD!

The gauges are for the 1995 - 2000 SE Models. Thanks about the roll back.. or foward.. I hope I can figure something.. if anyone has any ideas, please send them my way.. I would like to have my miles back.. lol -MikeyChes 95 Contour GL V6 30,000 Miles & Counting - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - KenWood KDC-MPV619 Mp3 Player Indiglo Gauges DUAL SERIES PL-300W
