In the old days u would just unplug at the back and knock all the dials out, but how easy can you clock a modern day car?? can it be done

As others have said, yes you can and its easy with the right kit.
As an aside, the reason digital odometers were made a legal requirement was to make clocking harder, but it's actually made it easier! you used to have to remove the clocks from the dashboard and physically turn the dials, now you just plug in a computer! You don't even have to get your hands dirty!
Even worse, you could usually tell when a mechanical odo had been tampered with, as the numbers often didn't line up properly, and you could see marks on the screw heads, but now, there is no way to tell.
