Re: ADVANCING odo mileage?

[Elliott Potter <epotter@abraxis.com>]

Hmmm... well it's only 13K miles, it just might work.  All I have to do
is figure out how to do it without removing the dash ;)

Another question that worries me is the legality of it...I know it's not
the same as turning the odo. BACK, but there's a sticker on the door and
a record of it in the dealer's computers, what if I want to sell later? 
Is there some official way of going about this?
