Being in this situation raises many questions:
My car is bought used with 80k kilometres. If someone can just buy a spare instrument cluster and swap them around every year, the next person buying the car (me) will never know?
Does the 3rd gen Yaris store the milage data anywhere else? Can I access this data? Or the dealer?
I have been driving around with this broken cluster, how can I tell what the exact milage is of my car? I know it is around 88k kilometres, but I cannot say what the exact number will be since I have been driving around with this broken cluster. If the data is stored somewhere and someone finds out the data is not an exact match with the data shown on the odo meter, I am afraid I will be sued for it. Idk, I just want the exact number on the odo meter..

You are right the mileage data is stored in the instrument cluster, so you will be having the donor mileage which is incorrect.
I dont know how to program it but it is possible as what the other have done in below.
