Kalu on the forum can code 973 clocks.

If its a diesel you have , im selling my TDI highline clocks soon. I think its a 971, so I can code them for you, or anyone who has vag k+ commander tool.

Have a read of this before you buy:

If you have 962 clocks, you may need 972 highline replacements

Going from 962 to 973 is no problem, it is that x73/74 clocks are different to recode and only a few people on here can do these ones.

972 would be the ideal replacements, mainly because they are the natural replacement and can easily be DIY'ed, however clusters are not easy to come by.

If you start going for x70/71 then you'll find niggling issues as these are older, rely on the older style of MFSW buttons and compulsory use of the MFA wiper stalk.
