Is possible - There are hundreds of threads on this  :wink:

Speak to Kalu or Eddie-NL as they will need coding  :smiley:

Where are you based - were looking to get Eddie down from Norwich to the south to do a few highline fits

Just need to get the right clocks. You need to find somebody with Commander as well as VCDS.

I can vouch for Eddie-nl he did some clocks for me on a Rline polo same as hiline on the golf he makes it look easy but I don't think its for the faint hearted ,,He is a very clever young man who knows his stuff .

You should be able to do this if you have access to VCDS, the right version of Vag Commander, and the right part number to replace yours. 973 clocks are 2007 equipment. You would need genuine software to swap them in. Like others said Eddie-nl does that, but if you're willing to take the risk there are plenty DIYs on this.
