...however, the cluster (if connected) will still provide an indication that the key supplied is incorrect.
I know I'm replying to a thread that's a few years old.


I'm currently in the process of changing out my MK5 GTI's Red MFD to that of a 2012 MK6 GTI.  So far, I changed over the Gateway, but that process wasn't necessary as it doesn't provide any additional functionality.  I only did it out of idleness, and bragging rights.  For those of us RHD, its in the engine bay, under the windshield cowling behind the wiper arm motor assembly.

I'm waiting for my Micronas to NEC cluster harness to arrive (from somewhere in China) before I can fiddle around with the immobilizer bit.
