Title: Highline cluster retrofit.
Post by: GTI 500 on October 19, 2025, 02:23:00 pm

Anyone in the South East London/Kent area that can code in a highline cluster from my midline cluster?

I'm based in Kent and was in the same situation as you. I ended up driving to Great Yarmouth in Norfolk and getting EddieNL (edward1975 on eBay) to code a 3D Tiguan cluster into my Mk5. If you get stuck for someone more local, he really knows his stuff, you could contact him through one of his listings on eBay. All the best.

I looked up cluster removal on YouTube and uk company shows that.

Just to be kind the dials are excessively tight.
Unless the column is dropped fully and you have fingers like ET and the strength of a bear it is easy to crack the front part.
Pulling on the very back you might be OK.
Rubbish design again.
The space shuttle and nasa weren't as high tech as this thing.
