Odometer is sunbaked 11 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
As the title states my odometer is sunburnt to the point that its no longer readable.Anyone else have this problem and is there a way to fix other than buying a new cluster?

Based on my own recent experience, I would say no. However mine was sunbaked and crinkled. Still it was unreadable and I had to replace it.

Can't help with the odometer, but if it's the faceplate you can get a custom made one

The odometer is no longer readable. Pretty sure the faceplate won't help that.

I was afraid that would be my only option. Anybody have any leads on where to locate one.Ebay has gotten crazy expensive on these things.
