Just buy one off of BBEngineer or pick one up from the junkyard and send it to him for odometer calibration.

If I replaced the cluster with another one is the miles going to transfer or will I have to have someone take care of that?

You will have to have the mileage programmed to the new cluster.

you're still going to need to pull your dash off, check my video to take it off, it's pretty easy.
