    The trip meter and odometer quit a week ago and I assume it is a chipped
    gear after reading various threads on the internet. It was like this wen
    I got this car 7 years ago and I had it repaired. I'm guessing I pushed
    the reset while I was moving which is a no no.

    I have found several sources for this part. What is the best recommended
    source for a quality gear?

    How difficult is it to replace. I have replaced the clock so I have had
    the instrument cluster out.

    Thanks,

    Dave

    I replaced mine using a kit from IPD. It included the gear and a CD showing
    exactly how to locate, access and replace the gear. Costs a little more than
    just the gear alone, but I felt it was worth it for a first time venture. It
    is not difficult once you see how it all goes together. Check ipdusa.com
