Will possibly now be next month or the following month as I decided impulsively yesterday to get the car wrapped and don't get it back till next week :smiley:
Out of curiosity where are you based if he's not up for the job would you be interested/willing to help out.....obviously I'd pay you for it :happy2:

Well your VW mate can't do much installing the cluster or discover media 2 unit since these are not supposed to work in the Mk5 platform. Since it's from newer cars they are normally coded online to the cars VIN which isn't possible to with the mk5.
I've bought the cluster and navigation unit from a mate of mine who works with retrofits all day.
Sound great with a wrap, which colour did you go with?

Its getting wrapped in 3M Matte Dark Grey with the back lights smoked and VW front grill & boot badges black, guy has been in touch and it'll be ready to collect on Saturday or Sunday. :jumping:
Would retrofits be willing to do the work for me? Where are they based ?

Awesome..
First think you'll need to upgrade on your car is the Canbus.
Buy the latest "AS" version.
Then I can ask my friend if he got any clusters left. We are from Denmark :jumpmove:

Denmark :shock:
I've had a look on eBay for a Canbus but I'll be honest I'm not sure what it is I'm looking for!!
Could you post a link for me if possible ? :congrats:
