Default 05 Cavalier instrument cluster question

Hi,

Since the 2005 Cavalier has a digital odometer, would I be able to replace the instrument cluster and have it still show the original miles? The one on mine has an issue and the mileage screen doesn't read properly. It fades in and out. Thanks!

yes because the odometer information is stored in the main computer, not the odometer itself.
