Hi. What does it look like if I have the original Virtual Cocpit Counter, but it is damaged? there is communication with its electronics, but the display, indicators and buzzer do not work... Can it be replaced with a universal one like yours?
I wish I bought a MK7 Golf, the amount of mods that can be done is unreal. I used to have a MK1 TT and mods for that weren't great if im honest as its old. Now got a new VW
Hi Bro ...i can't connect my cellphone to the Virutal Cockpit Unit? I can't find the RKCast with Bluetooth and in my Wifi? I only can connect my Cellphone to the USB cables of the Virtual Cockpit? It doesn't appear in the Bluetooth and Wifi? What is the name of the Android Mirror App?
Will make a follow up video soon. But no major problems since fitting. My main concern would be that it shuts down whilst driving 😂 But it’s been running fine for over a month
Can i use this on a TGI golf 7? (Natural gas) because on the left side it shows natural gas remaining, and ont the right side instead of water temp it has the petrol indicator
I did the same retrofit for 20+ people for 700€ that includes cluster itself, mileage correction, immo programming and everything else whats needed included in this price Location - Europe
So you do with the original digital cluster from VW? If yes is it possible to get it done on a golf 7 GTE 2016 model, and where are you located? Am from Denmark
@@muratozdemir3044 its possible for your golf. But not for 700€. Original price is about 1300€ in germany for the cluster alone. Programming and Coding costs extra. There are some coders in germany that are capable of doing that retrofit.
Nice job mate. I see you usually only work on your own car, but I have a MK7 GDT and would really like one installed but am not confident enough to do this myself. Any chance if please? Obviously I’ll pay you, would be very grateful 👍
Sick video I bought the same screen and reverse camera as your mk5 golf for mine it’s brilliant I just need the led lights for it now which ones did you buy the link shows multiple types
Hi, first time coming across your channel. Is there a chance you can show a detailed video of how you removed the motherboard and the whole motors for the needles and how you connected everything up. Im asking as I've seen some tutorials where others have broken some bits off, making the motherboard unable to go back into the old housing. Im also currently adding some mods to my car and was thinking of paying for a VC, but the prices I've seen on FB or Ebay are not worth it.
On the original digital cluster you can't get the Waze map view but you get its directions. On Android Auto any map app gets its directions mirrored to the compass on the cluster. On CarPlay only Apple Maps but you also get remaining distance, distance to the corner/roundabout and ETA.
@@autoapna Nice! I was just sharing how the OEM works so it's easier to compare. On the OEM one you can only see the actualMp if you use the built-in navigation. Unfortenaly you can't mirror Waze and Maps as with that one...
Have you compared it to the oe digital dash. It looks low resolution on this video compared to my digital dash on the mk7.5r, like the oe is 1080p and this one is 720p. Is it maybe just your recording device.
It’s pretty clear. You can’t see any pixels on screen. Not sure what the res is on the original but this is HD. Also surprisingly the UI is more responsive than the stock one. I tried the UI on a MK7.5 GTE with stock VC
Well, let's see... instead of gauges that had to be designed, produced, calibrated and put together, you can simply plug in a cheap chinese tablet... I guess you're not alone :]
Hi brother, i got the exact same dashboard from aliexpress but im experiencing one problem. The screen doesnt adjust in brightness. Is your screen adjusting in brightness?
Can you use the HDMI of the Virtual cluster to have a direct input fron the android headunit, most android headunits have display output and can display waze or google maps on that external output and leave the headunit display free for anything else, thus makeing the call fell like its a stock function ?
@@avramflorin4216 I can answer that for you, the answer is no, i asked the seller, he said the hdmi is unused and is for any future upgrade, i have a hdmi output on my headunit, i suppose i could try it either way, would be awesome if android auto would also beam across from stereo, spotify on the stereo and waze on the cluster, im sure if enough of us ask someone may do something.
@@sciroccomods hey, thank you for your reply, unfortunately any future upgrade for this chinese clusters would be close to a miracle to be honest. Im interested in getting one for my VW CC that never got the OEM Virtual Clusters. Just upgraded my headunit to the Mekede M7+
Should work with MIB1 as you are using the same board and just attaching it to a new display. Listing says 2013-2019 without any mention of needing a specific MIB. Just send a picture of your steering wheel to the seller and he’ll confirm compatibility.
yes, I understand, so does the potentiometer control the brightness of the new display like it controlled the brightness of the gauges? Or is there some menu option to adjust the brightness of the display? @@autoapna
All these upgrades are well sick. By the end of this series, this car is gonna be some next level knightrider. Keep up the amazing work Zeshan 👍
Thank you bro
Thank you for your kindness Zeshan and have a Happy New Year 🎉2024🎊 Everyone.

Thank you bro
Great quick simple video ! ❤
Thank you. Wanted to keep it short and simple. Most are several minutes long. This cuts the chase and goes straight into it.
This looks so good, good job!
Thank you
Beautiful work bro. That screen mirroring option is sick and the fact that you can’t even do that with the OEM screen 😂
Thank you bro for the kind words

Very informative video what other vw models will these clocks fit ?
Do the make them for the caddy mk4
I wish I bought a MK7 Golf, the amount of mods that can be done is unreal. I used to have a MK1 TT and mods for that weren't great if im honest as its old. Now got a new VW
One of the reasons I bought a Golf MK7 and the Golf MK5. The list of mods you can do on Golf’s are endless
@@autoapna after seeing your videos I'm looking at getting a mk5 golf as yours looks so clean mashallah. Keep content coming for that car plz
Can you use carplay and screen mirror at the same time?
Decent job bro 👏🏻
Thank you bro
that is absolutely fantastic! I wonder if its available for a VW T6?
The speedo for the T6 seems similar. Might be worth messaging the seller and see if it supports the T6
Does it fit Octavia or superb (2014-2019)
Does this also fitt for a volkswagen caddy 2017 2.0 tdi dsg?
Mashallah looks awesome 👏🏽also what’s the song you’re playing on the virtually cockpit?
Jazakallah brother
This looks awesome, I need this in my MK6 R !
It’s an awesome mod and you can get it for the MK6!

@@autoapna Get a move on then haha nah seriously though can't wait, so i'll jump ahead, any issues or i do have to wait ? 😆
Salam Akhi, looks so sick. Just bought one now. Quick question. Do you need to buy the trim separately?
The trim comes with it
OEM can still mirror the inbuilt sat navs onto digital cockpit
Yep - it can show the built in navigation. But can’t show Waze or Google Maps is what I meant.

Is there a model available for 2010 Vw Transporter T5.1 ?
Thanks!

Gonna purchase the mk6 model for my 2016 Jetta s and try to install it 😅
Will it work on seat leon?

Why doesn't the digital cluster appear in the same group's Audi B8 and C7? 😢
Can I pay you to install the digital dash? Got a mk7 aswel and this upgrade looks amazing 🙏🏽
Unfortunately don’t have time to do work on other cars. Just working on personal cars.
Can you do this with Audi s3?
thats amazing!!
Thank you!
how does the analog one not look better to you?????
Sick video I bought the same screen and reverse camera as your mk5 golf for mine it’s brilliant I just need the led lights for it now which ones did you buy the link shows multiple types

BRO PLS DO ONE ON THE MK5
I need this for my a3 8v.
Does it bring up any error codes?. Also does it communicate with the infotainement system and or show in car nav in the display
No error codes. Communicates with infotainment display. The map directions appear on screen. I’ll make another video soon showing it all
can you do this for a seat leon mk3 2019 facelift
Is it possible to do this on a Q3 2013

So regarding breaking off the board. Nothing needs to be broken off. Just removed off. So if you ever need to go back to stock. You can do.
Does it fit Seat Leon 2015?
Salaam bro, you have this fitted for 5 months now, any issues or problems? Maybe make a video reviewing the product, thinking of buying this.
No major issues so far. Might make another video

No, you aint special.
Yes
Well, let's see... instead of gauges that had to be designed, produced, calibrated and put together, you can simply plug in a cheap chinese tablet... I guess you're not alone :]
Depends on what kind of car I drive. For my golf R, I will prefer analog
No you are not. Me too. Greetz from germany Golf 6r
I wonder. Would these work on a GTE? their clusters are slightly different
Will need contact seller. Got a feeling it doesn’t work on hybrids
great dash 👌
Thank you
There's a garage that offers this but no sure if it's the same unit as this one and they charge over £500 though!
Quite a few garages have seen my video and started offering the same unit 😂
Is there 1 like this for mk3 leon cupra
Will this allow to set gas/petrol to gallons instead of liters?
Possibly can. There’s quite options in the Settings
Hello, and still working fine? No special problems like heating or other things?
Still working fine
Does this allow to display wether you have an R or a GTI logo?
I’ve seen some that allow you to do that. I haven’t tried it yet. I’ll take a look through the menus and see.
Will you consider upgrading to the 9.2 discover pro screen?
Probably not. The 8” works pretty well
What other mods you got planned
THATS HARD!
Thank you
Im' looking for a display like that for my 08 mustang kitt replicas
Im looking for a seat leon mk3 version of this anyone know where i can find one? Had a look on aliexpress non on there

Is there something like this for the Golf 6 as well?
Yep can get for MK6

Yo bro could you look in to Audi r8 steering wheel buttons there available for the golf mk7
I’ll take a look.
Hi brother, i got the exact same dashboard from aliexpress but im experiencing one problem. The screen doesnt adjust in brightness. Is your screen adjusting in brightness?
Haven’t really had an issue with brightness. Seems to be the right brightness during day and night. I’ll be making a follow up video soon
You can choose your brightness for day and night. The night brightness of the screen will be when your headlights come on

They do seem to sell some on AliExpress for the Octavia VRS. But unfortunately it’s not plug and play.
Hi, does it support androidauto? Or just apple. Thanks
Can screen mirror on both Android & iOS
Does it need MIB2 or will it work with MIB1?
Should work with MIB1 as you are using the same board and just attaching it to a new display. Listing says 2013-2019 without any mention of needing a specific MIB. Just send a picture of your steering wheel to the seller and he’ll confirm compatibility.
Does it work on a manual aswell or nah
Works on any Golf that’s Petrol or Diesel. Doesn’t matter about transmission
Just clocked you sound like a driving instructor

You know mods like ambient lighting, footwell lighting, CarPlay, tints, do these need to be declared to insurance?
Technically any modification needs to be declared to insurance. Adrian Flux is pretty good in terms of insurance for modified cars.
