yes...the kms are stored in the cluster itself. thats why when i cracked my lcd screen in my cluster it only showed 18000km, so wanting it to all be right i swaped the lcd not the whole cluster. Thats why on ebay n stuff you see clusters advertised with a certain amount of kms.
well thats the case in ef and el's anyway.......not too sure bout ea's, eb's etc, i would think it wood be the same otherwise when you put it in the odometre will go crazy winding(analog in ea-ed right?) up to the right amount of kms.
theres my two cents anyway

you get what the cluster says, yes you can swap the just digi panel in an EA digi cluster and the k's stored in the rom will show up as expected.
