Am I stuck buying a completely brand new cluster to avoid the tamper dot post coding? or if i buy a cluster with confirmed lower mileage than my car will that be fine (cluster adjusting mileage upward to match the car?

Thanks all.
I have been looking into this as well and when I inquired about using a used 6WB this is what I was told:

"If 6WB is used, it must have VIN and Mileage blanked. I cannot do it as EEPROM must be desoldered and either blanked, or replaced. Best to buy new one for sure."

Let me know if you find out anything different.
