Hey everyone (first post here),
I’m hoping someone can help me out here. I’ve got a 2007 Golf 5 Variant and I want to retrofit a Highline MFD, a MFSW, the wiper stalk with the MFD control button, and cruise control.
Right now, my instrument cluster has the VAG number 1K0 920 853 Q. Under the steering wheel module in VCDS, I found 1K0 953 549 BB (not 100% sure if that’s the correct one to look at).
From what I’ve gathered so far, I think I need a Highline cluster (not sure if it has to be 972, 973, etc.), and I’d have to code it with the correct PIN, mileage, and so on.
What I’m not sure about is the correct order to install everything. Like, when should I add the MFSW, the wiper stalk, and cruise control(Before or after if it even makes a difference)? Also, would I need a new steering control module to make the MFSW buttons work? Or could I just buy the buttons (like from AliExpress), fit them in, and code them somehow?
Sorry for all the questions — I’ve never done a retrofit like this before, so any help or guidance would be super appreciated! Bonus points if you can point me to which parts would actually work.
Thanks in advance!
