instrument cluster - texaspete1973 - 15:th-Feb-2015 Does anybody know if I bought a new instrument panel (speedo rev counter etc) is it just plug it in or does it need to be coded in instrument cluster - tucpal - 15:th-Feb-2015 it would need programming in and a VCI code also sure they are security locked to the car also but it must be possible if the cluster was broke and a brand new one was added but if it is not broke then i would say no they would not even look at it for you but why do you need one. instrument cluster - texaspete1973 - 15:th-Feb-2015 There's nothing wrong with mine , seen a 13 reg one for sale for £30 and it would probably have the new layout with 3 different lines on each screen. It was only an idea but not worth it with the cost of the programming. instrument cluster - tucpal - 15:th-Feb-2015 NO mate not a good idea but if you ask rusty he may well know how to activate any hidden menus if you are missing any look at his trader section (rusty) instrument cluster - texaspete1973 - 15:th-Feb-2015 tucpal Wrote:NO mate not a good idea but if you ask rusty he may well know how to activate any hidden menus if you are missing any Ok, cheers Tucpal i'll have a look now instrument cluster - WhelanUK - 15:th-Feb-2015 texaspete1973 Wrote:There's nothing wrong with mine , seen a 13 reg one for sale for £30 and it would probably have the new layout with 3 different lines on each screen.

I didn't know there were different layouts? instrument cluster - Rusty2009 - 15:th-Feb-2015 There are different layout and different options depending on model. you can prep a module for removal this will copy all the data from your old one and then copy it back to the new unit, as to wether this devoices the item from your car I don't know as I've not done it and as yet don't know anyone who has. Most people are just guessing about what you can cant do with the new cars that only use MDI as so few people have an MDI. I had everyone telling me I would not be able to to get the AFL retrofit working but I did. No breakers will have an MDI to devoice things from cars unless they have a really cheap and nasty Chinese clone. |
