Could somebody tell me a definate answer on whether the odometer mileage is stored in the cluster itself or in my XJ's computer. I keep hearing both in the cluster and in the computer. I want to upgrade to full guages instead of idiot lights but I don't want to alter the mileage on my XJ. My XJ specs are below.

Thanks!!

The milege is stored two places, in the computer AND in the instrument gauge cluster. I changed my 98's about 4 years ago from idiot lights to gauge cluster, the gauge cluster was out of a TJ...I just made a note in my owners manual of the discrepancy.
