I too live in New Jersey. It is not illegal to repair the speedo or service 
it in any way which does not alter the vehicles mileage. I believe Dan 
stated originally he wanted the new speedo to read the same mileage as the 
car had on the old unit. This is ok and allowed. Being in Law Enforcement, 
I have read the statutes and directives pertaining to this in the Motor 
Vehicle Code here in NJ (Title 39) for related instances in the past. Any 
"altering" or "tampering" is illegal. However I dont think thats what was 
intended. Any certified shop can document the mileage for you and correct 
the new unit to match.

I don't know about Virginia but the last time I checked it was still 
part of the U.S.A. It is against FEDERAL law to tamper with a 
speedometer. I live in New Jersey and they take it seriously. >>
