Guys... I called the MTO and checked. The officer at the N/B inspection station on 11 near Callendar says we don't need the card unless we're selling the car as a dealership.

I asked about it at a local renewal office and they gave me the inspector's number. The MTO inspector I spoke to (in charge of enforcement of regs for the area) says as long as I've recorded it, it's not an issue. If the car will never be sold through a dealer directly from this point (ie. repairs before resale), it doesn't matter.

So long as I have recorded the old cluster's kilometerage (which I have) and the juping-off mileage on the new cluster (which I have), even at renewal time I'm fine.

I'm glad everyone is concerned about this, but to make it easier I'm going to post the inspector's direct line. You can call yourself if you have any questions about this.

EDIT - (705) 752-1311. I forget the inspector's name, but he'll give it when he answers the phone.

You can also call a local licensing office. They will either answer your question or redirect you to someone who can. If you hate the bureaucracy down south and want to speak to a live person, call the office I called - (705) 495-3481. Great for VoIP guys and anyone with a good long distance package. :) Their hours are 9-5 Mon-Fri, Sat 9-12.
