Rolling back s5 odometer?

Is there a way to roll back a s5 odometer, I want to use a s5 cluster on my s4 t2, the s5 cluster has 160k on it and I want to match it to my t2 cluster with 75k, is it possible with out breaking it?

Pretty sure you can just swap the 75k speedo into your S5 cluster, no need to faff about resetting the "new" one.

You can swap them.

Rolling back the odometer is illegal and time consuming.
