So, Planohummer, can you please tell me where can I can it for $300? Anybody has the GM part # for this? I just browse online and found many aftermarket ones (different color gauges) for close to $500.
Another question, if I go ahead change it myself, and the odometer will reset back to 0, right? How will this affect my resale value because this will make my true mileage unknown, right?

Ask the dealer how much to exchange your cluster(not replace it with new). You should be looking about $300 with you taking it to them and getting it exchanged for you(they'll send it out to a GM reman center). 2 days turnaround is about right. If you don't have another vehicle, I guess you'll need to rent one(your alternator won't charge the battery without the cluster in place)
Simply replacing your cluster with another one with different miles is a federal crime unless you disclose it. You can get one of those 'odometer replaced' stickers to put in your door jamb, but that looks like carp.
