Default Odometer reset ?

Ever since replacing the odometer wheel last year ( thanks Roger) I,m a bit paranoid about resetting it, as I dont want to go back in there again, Is there a general consensus not to reset it while the car is moving, and only to reset with the ignition on and car stationary .
I,m sure I read a post on here regarding this , but can,t find it

I'd say not to reset it while moving, but the new gear is made of a much better material than the original one. It's probably not something to worry about.

Just to be on the safe side, only reset when not moving.
