Cluster millage change?

K i have searched this forum for two days to read about all that is involved in a cluster swap, the problems people have had with programming and whatever and many success stories... but what i havent found is a source for someone to change my odometer reading.

so what i need is someone to change the odometer reading on my newly aquired Lariat Cluster (ebay) to match my Broken XLT (no black lettering in the message center) therefore no odometer, trip, compass or low fuel

does anyone have contact information for this?

Thanks guys

The dealer can do it. Seems to cost about $50-60. The info is controlled through the truck's computer.

one thing i learned calling around and reading here is that a dealer cannont change the millage displayed on the cluster, its kept within.
Some dealers might happen to have the capability but the ford way is to order a new cluster with the millage the vehicle is currently at. thats 450-500 bucks
ebay is like 150 + programming 50-100

thats why im here, i need to find a place that can do it

so they replaced your cluster with a new one? one that was ordered and shipped programmed with the correct millage?

how could they know the exact mileage? the odometer read right, just the tach was misreading, there is no way they could have guessed it, i was driving the truck still.
