Default How do I know which is which..

When i bought my jeep it came with two instrument clusters.. One had 124.900 on it and the other one was put in the jeep came with a silver panel over everything.. that has 124000 but how do i know it wasnt changed at 124.900 and had a lower one put in. is there numbers put on it that i can reference to something else and see which is the stock panel.. or anyway to find out which is the stock panel..

Since it's a digital read out, the mileage is logged in the memory of the on-board computer so it will update to any cluster when it's installed.
