I attempted a swap over the winter when I had the dash apart to replace a couple speedometer lamps. The donor unit had at least 25K fewer miles on it, and the car would not start after the swap. The code had to do with the engine immobilizer. I then tried swapping the actual odometer units from one MIU to the other and the odometer from the MIU with higher miles still showed the lower mileage from the donor MIU.
Some research I did after the fact said that if the MIUs were "close" in mileage a straight swap was possible, but there was no mention of what is considered "close".
This was a 2000 car and either a 2000 or 2001 donor MIU.
