Instrument Cluster swap, need information

Post by japmeet »

Hi guys! This is my first time here and I simply love the passion you guys have for your vehicles! I just saw (on the internet) the Australian 6r and the LCD it has between the speedometer and the odometer. My car's hud/instrument cluster looks like this : Image

and the Australian Polo's instrument cluster looks like this : Image

I had the first image and changed it to the second image. Look at the kilometers.

Have the same clusters here in India. Pretty crap if u ask me. I swapped mine to the Blue GT one. The Red LCD is from the absolute Lowest Model.

I notice that the calibration on the speedometer changes at 60kmh.

Mine changes at 80mph. This is in my opinion a really bad design feature.
