I am tired of the poverty pack look of my TPs. (both are Executives and my previous TN was a GLX)
So I was thinking of getting an Elite. Trouble is, it is hard to find a low kms one. So I thought I might buy a cheap Elite with a good interior and swap the seats and a few other bits into my sedan. There's one in the Trading Post right now for $990 that has the right colour seats (brown) and they look excellent.
I also like the digital dash but don't like the idea of putting one with a high kms reading in my car. Mine has done less than 70,000kms. So, it occurred to me that I could make up a digital pulse generator with a variable rate that I could connect to the digital odometer to feed pulses into it.
The question is, what happens to the reading when it gets to its max.? Does it start again from zero? What is the max? I am guessing it is 999,999 but does anyone know?
Note: I don't want to cheat anyone. I would just want to set it to the same as my existing odometer's reading at the time of swapping over.
