Odometer…
 
Swapped out my speedo with a K’s 300km/h one, only thing theirs came with a new odometer showing 4km. Has anybody ever swapped theirs, or messed with it so you don’t have to open up the speedo? I legitimately just want to move it forward to show the actual mileage, also tried opening my old speedo but the screws were stripped to sh*t. Ideally one of you guys knows the secret to rolling it forward.

It’s doable, it might have to be opened. Practice more on your old one or another speedo. Not sure on legalities of offering such how to so I’ll leave it at that.

Thanks for the motivation, just needed a hard look into the fsm. Simpleish job, hope I don’t break anything putting it back together. I feel like what I’m doing should be the legal thing as I’m displaying the original chassis miles. Funny thing tho

It’s a simple ratcheting mechanism.
