advancing the odometer

ok here goes. i recently replaced the odometer on my civic, however the mileage on the new odometer is 34k less than what the car has on it. i was wondering if there was any way i could advance the odometer so i can portay actual mileage and not get into trouble when going for my inspection sticker renewal. it probably wouldnt matter but the title on my car is salvage and the mileage was documented when the car was wrecked by its previous owner. any advice would be appreciated

Re: advancing the odometer

if you take the odo out, you can just manually adjust the numbers to whatever you want.

Re: advancing the odometer

i suppose, but i still think just adjusting the wheels by hand is the easiest.
