Been thinking about doing this. Couldn't find any videos on it. Now this video pops up on my homepage covering exactly what I want to do on the exact same car. Like even the exact part code on the new cluster I was looking to buy and the same issue with the brightness on the old cluster. Great video man! I'll definitely stay tuned for the next video. You can fix this bro!
I'm doing more research and need some money to do this swap. I thought it would just be a matter of copying and pasting the EEPROM data on the new cluster but it's not that straight forward.
@@MegatronicsZA A few days ago I DM'ed a dude on tiktok who got it to work. I asked him what I'd need to do the replacement, he said: The cluster, the pin adapter, immobilizer transfer + coding, upgrade can-gateway. I dunno if this helps tho. I could ask him more?
Yeah that's some pieces of the things you need to do for the swap but I found out that there's more. There are some addresses on the Immobilizer that needs to be changed. He's right about the things he told you, but how you need to do it, the steps to follow. They don't really share that info. If you can please ask him for more info.
I've seen some people online get it right with a golf mk6 cluster but also as you well know they don't show how they got there. I have seen an upgrade on a passat where the original board was used and then entire cluster was swapped to digital I'm thinking of going that route as the screen and board are all that's required as far as I could tell from the video
@@ProjectMK5 yes you are right they do it with a Golf 6 cluster that they put on a VW Golf 5 casing and make it work but they never show how they got there but I'm making progress. I've ordered the tool from AliExpress but it will take time to arrive.
Hi, nice movie :) I did similar upgrade with SWCM change (midline to highline). My Multifunction works fine after coding via VCDS, but now I would like to switch Steering Wheel to new one (like your or from Golf GT). Only horrn requires rewiring in harness? Is new Multifunction Plug & Play?
could you please do a video off the dashboard and engine fuse boxes and diagram if available. I have the same exact vehicle and I can’t find a diagram ANYWHERE and I’ve put one of the fuses in the wrong place so I need a video to show where they all go. Thank you so much
I am trying to get a solution to it. What I'm left with is to order the key programming software and apply the information I have researched and see if it will work.
@erniiv.3912 how I want to do this is using a software that I need to buy soon and copy original files and write them to the new used cluster, that software can read SKC too. Some use the VW software but I won't use that.
God bless you from Kenya 🇰🇪. I have the same clusters as you. You've helped me alot.
Thanks a lot man, although I have not cracked it. I will find some way around it.

@@JaroslawS1989 hey man, thanks. When you do have the SWCM coded you don't have to re-wire the horn, all will work fine
I am doing the same swap on VW Caddy 2006 with cluster from 2012. I Got it working by changing immo data with AVDI in obd2

I need to convert the speedometer, where can you get it?

I need to record a response to this video to explain how he would need to do the immobilizer part.

I'm going to do a video of that but not now, there's a funeral that I'm busy handling so I'm not in a good space.

I have done a lot of these upgrades in my local area. It's not so hard, just need some practise and knowledge for it.
Can you please give me some detailed information that can help me get it working
Yes how do you do this? Do you use the software to read key codes then update the PIN on your cluster from VW programming software
@erniiv.3912 how I want to do this is using a software that I need to buy soon and copy original files and write them to the new used cluster, that software can read SKC too. Some use the VW software but I won't use that.
