If you have the gauges I have described then you have the standard dash. If you have an oil temp gauge then someone has fitted a different dash from a higher spec car.

Sounds like replacement dash panel. Get a Haynes manual - it is easy to change the dash panel (even without a manual.)
Lower the steering wheel to lowest position. Starting at the bottom carefully prise off the panel surround. A single screw is revealed that holds the dash panel in place.

Thats rich coming from you!!
Milage in a pre plex will show on the dials to whichever is the greatest either on the new dials or ecu.
Basically if you ecu read 90k and new dials are 120k - it will show 120k
Again if the dials show 90k and the new dials show 40k - it will show 90k
Try and get lowest reading dials you can
Hopefully this solves it
