Do I own a Mustang? No.
Do I need to watch this? No.
Did I enjoy this anyway? Yes
Now I'm wondering if there is there one for my superduty lol
@@Fzr600pike I shall install one in my pushmower
its the same i was thinking !!
Did I watch the video? No.
Did I listen to the video? Yes.
Am I blind? Yes.
Do i want to buy a mustang just to install this mod? Yes.
Putting it all back together before trying it is a very VERY bold move! Glad it worked out!
Very bold indeed 🥸
Being a car audio installer myself, I was cringing....physically twisting my body lol....as I saw the first piece...then second...etc....go back on WITHOUT testing out the new cluster first! Especially even stating several times that the plug may have damage but very unlikely unable to work, could still simply not get seated properly. Look how many steps he would have to go through just to get back to that. With the potential to break any of those parts again.
"It's best to test before putting back the rest"
Corny but has saved me so many labor commissions because you don't get paid to take something back apart that's your fault for not testing.
I know the battery is disconnected but unless it specifically says DO NOT POWER ON WITHOUT AIRBAG INSTALLED, test first, or at least call the manufacturer before starting the job.
"Hey. Is it ok for me to reconnect the battery and test this new console before completely reinstalling the the entire dash?"
Well worth the time to call, and get the person's name you spoke too, and just good CYA (Cover Your A$$) practices!
Like Cameron said, this isn't being negative but I'm positive that it's worth talking about!
LOL!
@@justinmurphy2227 it's a ford vehicle you can disconnect the airbag and run it without worrying about codes that won't clear themselves after reinstalling the airbag.
@@foodhatesme ok this knowledge helps to know. I apologize about being ignorant to this...thank you! I drive a 2003 Ford Ranger and have for the 20 years. I didn't know how far Ford's CPU/ECU's have advanced and in what ways.
I've went from a 3.0 to 5.0 and now I'm going to 2.3 turbo. I just can't decide if I want to do a 2.3 Duratec, built and turbo'd, vs a 2.3 Ecoboost stock out of a Mustang with minimal addons as it's safe tuned power (400ish WHP) is all I want.
It's a Ranger....not a future "crowd controller" with a shovel aka it's bed.
LOL.
@@justinmurphy2227 np, I recently picked up an ex intercepter 2005 mustang with the v6 that comes chipped and cammed from factory. I'm thinking about putting a supercharger on it.
In my personal opinion I'd go for the stock mustang motor and put a supercharger on it, costs a bit more but you get way more power in the low end and no turbo lag.
Honestly that was pretty close to plug and play!
I have this on my 2019 Mustang GT Premium 5.0 and I made sure to purchase it with this gauge cluster 12in LCD screen and I have to say that it is an awesome feature to have it looks amazing and in my opinion it is totally worth it. Didn't know they had a kit to modify the old cluster to this new one. Great Video.
What's weird is that my 2018 evoboost premium seems to have all the cool stuff except for the shaker speakers and this cluster....i really like the cluster ir came with tho
I have 2019 and I dont want to cut any plastic is 12 inch gonna fit without cutting ?
how much was it?
Fav part of these new videos is definitely showing the tools needed beforehand. Vids just keep getting better
Dont know why im watching this i dont even have a mustang
me either
I don’t but I plan to in the future
I have a honda accord the fith gen seeing this actually give me an idea to put the S2k gage in my car...dunno if it actually gonna work or not 😅
@@kaz5215 it is gonna work, some people have done it in the past. Apparently the physical fitment is the biggest issue but if you have a dremel you should be good
me either but digital is making a comeback
ughhh wish I wasn't broke, it was all I could do to finance a 2015 base model, one of the coolest mods out there, thanks for sharing.
It's nice to see the ODO doesn't reset and not stored physicall on the old Speedometer! Nice job Ford!
I see many cars where if you change the Speedo, the ODO reading is lost and back to 0 on the new one!
That's so sick! Pricey at $2k but looks to be worth it if you have the scratch. Wish more companies would do this for late model year cars of all sorts!
I just got my 2023 mustang GT with the 401A package (which includes the digital cluster) and it is absolutely AMAZING! It does feel like you’re driving a super car or something. I also have the 10spd automatic. I know some of you will be like oh no you should have gotten the manual. But I drove a manual and I’m telling you what the power between the manual and automatic is INSANE! The automatic is WAYYYY FASTER! It’s also SOOO MUCH MORE FUN! the different drive modes actually feel different when using them. On the manual it all feels the same except the steering feel. I have always had manual mustangs but after driving the 10spd I fell in love and will never have another manual sport car. We live in a time where the automatics are insanely faster than the manual! Plus if you wanna be lazy and put it in comfort mode then you can do that. Would be kinda hard to do that with a manual. Great video bro! #MUSTANGFAMILY
Me with a camaro making sure not miss any steps:👁👄👁✍🏽
Wait we can do that!?! Plz tell me if it worked
@@devorizer5959 no you can't he is just saying he says he is paying attention to it like if he is going to use it
@@devorizer5959 🤦♂️ 😂
I'm going to buy a s550 someday soon. It's gotta be a pp1, 6 speed, digital dash and active exhaust. I love that digital dash!
I was going to consider adding this to my mods list. While I do prefer analog gauges, I like general look of it and the fact the entire gauge area is open. But after I clicked the link and saw it cost $2.4k, I figured I'd leave this one out. Nice video anyway, dude!
Best way is to find a used one or a crashed mustang o just need one on Facebook if he lets it go for a good price ima do it
@@ballstoyou33 been looking at them too but they’re not worth it for the price. Would much rather put some power down than something that you’re hardly looking at
@@ImisstheoldNick 🤣🤣😭😭I’m putting a built block in my car as we speak so after that it’s time for looks cosmetics
@@ImisstheoldNick I didn’t know about the switches on the steering wheel and the collar thing for the wipers I thought it was just a dash you plug and play I was thinking of getting it off a crashed mustang but this kit seems more logical idk tho
@@ballstoyou33 Yeah I agree, but still does not seem worth it imo. Idk I also just dropped 3k on a borla attak so I can't even say that
Tbh I didn't even know you had mustang videos! I was watching all your ST videos and now I'm here with a mustang 😎
I got my 2016 GT PP1 last week and I'll probably do this mod at some point but not very high priority on all the things I want to do
first quality wheels and tires (not that cheap crap on the car now), full car polish and PPF, repairs/maintenance where needed, some small cosmetic/accessories stuff, spare 19inch wheel, sort out the MT82 issues etc etc
after all that it will be stuff like the digital dash
I recently found your channel, and hands down favorite to watch. very laid back, calm, not negative, straight shooter. im about to get a 2016 GT, and im so excited. keep up the good work my man.
Its funny that a lot of people commented “$2200+ so expensive” and they still gonna buy iphones and ipads or buy both every year. I believe this mod is worth it.
right!!!
Yeah I see where you are coming from, but you have to consider this. It's 2200, you can buy so many other mods that are going to be much more useful and overall better than just a gauge cluster. I totally agree that it looks cool, but it's a really expensive cosmetic. Buying iphones, ipads, etc. are things you kind of need. Unless you want to be really outdated and cheap, then yeah go ahead and buy a flip phone. But, honestly I don't think you can compare this $2k+ gauge cluster to people buying iphones and ipads.
ROLLS ROYCE well, gauge cluster are something that you need everyday esp driving. Give this guy a break. It is comparable with iphone and ipads, you just dont get it yet. I bet this mod is for the long run nothing comparable such as to disposable tech ie: iphones and ipads, in which are expensive.
I would look at it as a investment over time. If your going to keep the car for 4 years, £2k over 4 years isn't much. After all it is a mod you look at every time you drive.
Its a distraction. Keep your eyes on the road. Lol.
Had my mustang for a week and already can't wait till I can grab one of these and swap it in.
I love these type of mods. Looks 100% better. I would have probably combined this with a steering wheel project being I had to take the wheel out, because I have to make my projects complicated lol.
dont know why there are dislikes. this video is seriously the hookup in case you have a mustang. great vid!
2k is a little much for a cluster honestly. Looks really good. I just wish it wasn’t so expensive so I could do it.
same!! been wanting to pull the trigger but omfg 2k is alot
Your video is still helping people today. I replaced the gauge lens on my 2020 mustang gt using your vid and a few others. Yours didnt show a one or two steps but over all thanks so much. Your frustration and excitement gave me the courage to do it on my own and after a few pinched fingers and missing bolts later, my mustang is looking better.
Did you have to use forescan for anything? Where did you order your cluster? Thanks!
This is something ill never attempt.. but interesting to watch
Why not, you won't break anything as long as your carefull
I put a different cluster in my F150. Easy peazy lemon squeezy
Cameron, thanks for showing us how to do the upgrade. I've got a 2015 and I'm considering the upgrade.
Yeah me too I got one just last week. It was the 50 anniversary tribute but still. It was a bargain for a gen 2 coyote.
G'day mate. I've just taken delivery of my second highly speced Mustang GT premium and what an absolute animal it is. I actually optioned mine with this same digital dash as I live in Australia, it would've been the biggest pain in the arse organising to have one sent out from the U.S.. Also I definitely wouldn't have the stones to take to my dash with a dremmil. Anyway I just wanted to say thank you for such a refreshing and informative channel, very relaxed, clear and knowledgeable. The Mustang has a huge following over here in Australia and for good reason. My next one will definitely be the GT 500 Shelby in another 2 years
love the POV camera. my mustang gt premium 2017 is coming soon so excited to do these mods!
After seeing the effort you need I don't think I could do it lol. Still amazin video
very few things more satisfying than seeing taking the car apart.
I’m so glad I found this! I’m currently saving up for a mustang and have wanted one with the digital gauge cluster but couldn’t afford it.
18:50 bro u cannot convince me u weren't stoned lmao but the cluster looks dope!
Nah he was just tiered after all that installation, ya feel lmao
Looks capped😂😂
He looks both tired and stoned...what a feeling hahha
Glad to find someone using this infotainment's products. I own a 2015 Edge sport and the only down side for me is My Ford Touch system, unfortunately I can't just update it to the new Sync 3 due to the hardware upgrades that Ford made. I found about this companies(Infotainment and 4D Tech ) that sell the updated head unit so I can have Sync 3 on my car but I am a little skeptical about it because is really really hard to find videos like this one...real person using the product and kinda reviewing it and giving his or her impression of it. You can only find comments on their websites (good comments only of course) and UA-cam videos published by the companies themselves with 0 comments and some cases the comment section is even disable and I am the kind of person that like to hear a 3rd party's opinion specially if I'm about to spend over 2k.
I know that people might say "just trade it in for a 2016 model" but I am happy with y car and I don't really want to do that...but at the same time the unit I am looking for cost 2k if you want it with GPS and Satellite radio enable and Im not really sure about installing that myself if I end up buying it.
Just finished my cluster swap, appreciate the help!!
Did the miles update or did you have to take an extra step to calibrate the correct mileage?
Only asking cause I want this mod
@@JtotheG. have to program it... cost me $200... got the bullit intro! @free_smoke_ah IG..
@@JtotheG. did you figure it out?
@@disrrptwtfmiles stay the same
Do the miles really swap over automatically? Im wanting to get a digital and was worried about having to get a laptop and forscan and yeah this is a huge relief. 😊@nathenb.9198
never noticed that huge crack in the windshield
i notice that one as well.
When I get 17 S550 this is going to one of the first 3 mods I get.
You should use a torque wrench for the steering wheel bolt.
Awesome job man! It seems actually do-able. I have the dual dial instrumentation on my 2019 GT.
Yes, you need the gt350 steering wheel! Id also love to see you install and review the navos big screen infotainment upgrade.
I really want this for my mustang. I've seen them in the newer mustangs and immediately wished mine had it
This is a blessing hope there were such mods for other daily drivers cars
Your Mechanical knowledge about cars is Amazing....
Where did you learn it
Trading in my 2020 scat pak boat for s 2020 mustsng GT csnt wait to get rid of my boat on wheels
This was a cool 20 minute video to watch before I go drive my Golf. Lmao.
I don’t even have a mustang but this is so satisfying to watch 💯.
Dude, you deserve millions of subscribers!
I just built/installed a tablet-based system I my 06 V6 Mustang, using RealDash. I hooked my tablet to USB power via a step-down converter, then using the ACC ON power to set a macros to both start AND shut it down w/ key on/off. All indicators work except my blinkers (If you know the Ford extended PIDs/Mode 22 PIDs, please share!)... so I custom installed two LED blinkers (ran from the front bumper) in my dash that illuminate the corners of my dash bezel in an underglow style left or right, as operated by the normal turn signal switch. Tablet runs via Bluetooth/OBDII port. All in? maybe 150 bucks? And it works flawlessly.
Dude I love your videos bud - just grabbed myself a 2015 Mustang GT and hope to upgrade from sync 2 to 3 and the digital cluster :) appreciate you man
My wife's 2020 Escape SE Sport Hybrid has the all digital gauge cluster and I made sure that was mandatory when I was buying a GT.
bought my 5.0 two days ago def want to do this
Very helpful w the tools list. A+!
SIck car man, I think the LCD is worth it.
Something to think about - black lugnuts. Super cheap and I have them on mine. Really makes a huge difference in the look of the wheel.
Like everyone else says. I don’t own a Mustang but that is a beautiful cluster 😍
Love this upgrade on the Mustang. So good. And nice Video editing nice and fast but detailed Satisfying to watch.
so satisfying to watch this. if i have to do interrior work on my audi i can never do it without angry screaming and mental breakdown.
Now recommending a receseng shift knob it’ll feel crazy crazy good
Agreed. Their weighted shift knob 👌
You are so fortunate to 1. have the craftsmanship to do this 2. the patience to do this and 3. to nail that on the first try with no problems. I want this led cluster so bad for my 2019 base model ecoboost. Do you think it will still be compatible? I hope to get this cluster and find someone who can install it for me for a price.
Looks so sick! Debating on picking this up for my 18 5.0
Hell horse performance has it for 1,885
jacob Vazo yea that’s the one I was looking at
@@Adrian5oh This one comes pre-programmed, so there's no need to download and run ForScan to configure it.
That digital lcd speedometer is super dope wish they had it for the Impala tired of looking at that look alike Camaro cluster
This will be my next mod! Thanks for sharing! The GT350 steering wheel is great btw. Worth it.
Close to $2400 for this cluster! I ordered mine for 18 gt roush, need that bad boy! Sick bro!
Dang so satisfying hearing those click sound
2k dam bro 😂
😂😂
That’s worth more than my car 😭
It's not like I'm serious about cars anyway 😂
8:45
Adds 50 hp.
U sir, have nerves of steel ..very impressive my guy.
I’m getting a mustang in a few months so this is awesome.
Like many (in the comment section) I have no mustang, but this was kinda relaxing
Man that looks absolutely amazing. If they made one for my 2012 I'd almost be compelled to pull the trigger on it despite the price tag. Very nice video, nice install. Well done all around 👍👍
That was so good specially because you had someone else taping the video while you did the work. Man I liked you and also I subscribed because your instruction were perfect specially with the tools you need that you did at the beginning.
Go pro much?
@@wp6834 Ohhhh, so he was using a ProCam, Duhhh, it didn't come to my mind. It's because I've never owned a GoPro cam. Thanks.
My wife has a gt mustang such a fun car to drive
That's such a bad ass bolt on ...but wow I wasn't expecting that kinda price
very nice cam......looks good man....i think i may switch mine over...got a 16.....well done sir!
Damn dude. You made it look very very easy! Hope I can follow and have good results.
Absolutely love the videos. Getting me through this quarantine.
So satisfying to watch
New gauge looking good 👍
Definetely my first mod , then tremec .
I now want to buy a Mustang. Your direction is pretty damn on point. Great video.
That is fire asf
All you need is the MBRP exhaust and bam, extreme stang
Yeah I have one an (MBRP AXLE BACK) in my 2019 GT paired with a roush-x pipe and let me tell you. It turns heads quick and will make folks behind you and in front of you think the coyotes are pissed off. People will hear you coming and will be like dammmnn. It’s loud my not an annoying loud. A serious aggressive muscle car loud. I’ve had folks ask me after hearing it if I did cams or did a tune and I’ve done neither yet.
@@nickl8830 exactly bro. It's real different. The Pops themselves makes you feel like your driving a hundred thousand dollar performance car and rattles with most beastly of power. Its fuckin amazing bro
Great install ! Ain’t gonna lie I think all the three musketeers should have this digital dash 🤙🏼
I have this in my 18’ ... love it
Great Video on how to do that install, now i wish i had a mustang, maybe someday
Can I use this with a ecoboost
Yeah I really like those gauges but I can’t justify spending 2k for it. I’d rather get a mean wheel and tire setup and good lowering springs
Oh shoot! Their 2k!? I wanted to install it once I get mine buutt that's gonna be rough 😳
Amén! 😭
If you swap out the wheel i think you lose some functionality like switching of the ambient lighting and some other stuff. Matt Farah talked about this in his onetakes
Din Miftari but it’s upgrades like this that don’t justify trading in a ‘15 for a 18+ Mustang. Like my ‘15 is paid off so I rather spend the money doing upgrades like these instead of trading in.
2 k for that that must be some cheap parts then
Yea I’m going to upgrade
Hey,
The mileage...how did you reset to show actual?
Audience, I love it Bro, plus your car sounds like a track car... What year?
Best install video I think I have every seen! Great work
After watching half of this video, so glad i paid for the digital dash👍
201A / 401A Package is $2300 new from the dealer which includes a leather trim package, heated steering wheel, My Color and this LCD Gauge cluster. Infotainments LCD gauge cluster alone is $2200, price point is sadly way off.
I have 2015 gt ,I would love this but u made look easy.
I sure hope I can do this to an extremely base 2020 Mustang Ecoboost
Wanted to get this for my Gt350. Looked at the website „excludes shelby gt350“. Nice :-)
I wish there was a kit like this for a 2008 mustang
Nice work!
Thanks for the video? Why is the redline at 6500 rpm? I assume this is a 2015-17 Mustang?
I’m going to order one as soon as I can
18:18 “Please rev it is fun” lol
My dumb ass would mount the steering wheel upside down 😂
Did you kept or lost your car's original millage?
I have a camaro but somehow I’m still here watching this lol
1 have a 2019 Mustang I need to change the cluster lens. Do you think I could change just the cluster lens without removing the steering wheel and just removing the little moulding to the left and right side ? Dude you were a beast for going in like that
I saw online price for lcd cluster for $2600 😂 for the price why not to spend couple thousands to get premium model 😢 lcd cluster/premium radio system etc..... i got base model i know it looks so plain but I'll stay in original other than that i only will upgrade some good speakers 🎉
Good video BTW
Dash looks gorgeous, only issue I noticed is that it doesn’t use the actual redline of a GT. Is there a way to fix this?
