Post by: Hedge on March 20, 2011, 03:02:56 pm: Looks cool. Not sure how he's done it as I thought Mk5 and Mk6 clusters were different shapes. :confused:

Post by: SteveP on March 20, 2011, 03:06:25 pm: He's used a touran or tiguan cluster I think :smiley:

I priced this up for my Mk6 a couple of months back and it was over £400 with the exchange fees paid on the new cluster.

Post by: mortygttdi on March 20, 2011, 05:32:04 pm: Its the Scirocco cluster its a direct fit to the mk5 golf, It can be done but the guy who's done it must have the new Vag Commander 10.0 or the use of it.

That cluster is the new colour display for the Scirocco/Touran/Tiguan also Golf 6 and Passat/Pass CC but obviously different cluster in them vehicles.

By the way the Touran/Tiquan does have a slightly different shape cluster although the back main bit is the same, only the Scirocco mask will go on them so you may as well just look for the Scirocco cluster, I think the dealer is the only way.

Eddie VW don't see the pin anymore so you would just get a cluster, Also correct me if I'm wrong but VW will not sell any dash clusters has they are dealer fit only???

Post by: Eddie-NL on March 20, 2011, 05:41:43 pm: you can buy a cluster from the dealer, the new cluster has a sticker over the port with the first log in

They can't see your code when plugged into the VAS

Post by: Eddie-NL on March 20, 2011, 08:24:07 pm: Just done a bit of detective work, the guys car is 2005

So I would imagine he bought a new cluster and used VAG-Commander to get his pin

Then coded the new cluster with vag-com

just need to figure out the right part number, had a look on vw site, don't see any options for the premium mfa on the tiguan. So I guess it must be a scirocco our touran version

I couldnt find the part number for the colour version but I have to part number for the standard black/white scirocco cluster that SHOULD work.

I'm sure the screen itself has just be swapped over by hand???

I'll dig the part number out

Title: Re: How cool does this look!!!
Post by: apollo13 on March 20, 2011, 09:11:38 pm: I've got rocco cluster number 1K8 920 972AX for diesel and 1K8 920 972X petrol.

Probably need a new 3C8 937 049AB CECM and a newer gateway.

Like I said these are the black/white DIS as the colour one wasn't around then?? But im sure the colour one can be swapped if you know what your doing.
