Shop to reflash cluster?

Shop to reflash cluster? - 2001 Civic
I just recently blew up the cluster in my 2001 Civic. How I did it, I'm not too sure. Looking at the board, I managed to fry a trace on it that controls the lights in the cluster and around the AC controls and whatnot.
I'm in the process of trying to purchase a new cluster from eBay. I'm going to do a swap to the new 2003+ clusters. They're so nice. But the problem is is that the mileage is actually stored in the cluster, so it won't transfer over. I'd like to have the proper mileage in the cluster.
The cluster I have currently is completely functional. Everything works in it, except the lights.
I'm looking for a shop around the area that can actually take the mileage off of the old cluster and reflash it to the new cluster that I'll be buying. I know that this is possible as I've talked to others that have had to have this done. I'm just not sure of a shop around the area that can actually do it.
So, do any of you guys know of shops around here that can do something like that? Hopefully it's pretty reasonably priced too. I'm looking for something hopefully no more than about $100 or so, if possible.

Re: Shop to reflash cluster?
The people I've known who have done STi cluster installs have had to have them sent off to the midwest somewhere.. Apparently it isn't that common of a thing to do for some reason, I could be wrong about that though.
