Only guy I can find to really put the E60 first thank your brotha❤️❤️🙏🏽
Crazy bro makes such a huge difference.
Great DIY!
Definitely recommending this to my friend for his e46
Amazing thank you for a great video
Cleannn upgrade
Wow I gotta do this too now
So cool!
Been looking to get this cluster
This channels a mans candy land 😂 I’ve stared working on my own car ever since I found it cuz it gave me the confidence I needed. Now I save $$$$ all the time
🤣
Me too!
The most worth it modification imo
I wish if i can install it in my E38
will the rev increments change based on vin / model? for example bmw 335d is diesel and revs about half as high as the e90 m3. Really cool video btw- thanks for showing how to install!
You can adjust the tachometer completely, the max RPMs and color zones in the settings.
Can this work on a Audi a seven
I really want the gauges you use at the 6:45 mark. Do you have the premium or standard version for that gauge style?
You can buy the themes separately on their website! That one is called ‘Speed Rush,’ it’s the only one I really use. It costs about $60 USD
Hello mate, can I ask, where did you get your steering wheel from and how too install. Thanks
There’s another video on my channel you can check out!
Is it easy to update the gauge cluster with the USB connector ?
Yes! It’s very easy. You just download the update file from their website onto a USB drive and plug it into the cluster. Once you plug it in, it automatically senses the USB and installs the update - it takes about 5 minutes!
I didn’t realize how responsive this scream would be wow
What firmware you’re on I thought they removed the M logo back in September due to legal reasons. I’m on the oldest firmware, because I did not want to lose my M logo.
Same! I’m on the version that was right before the removal of the M logo.
How much smaller are the spedos and tach from the original? It looks like its significantly smaller.
I couldn’t tell a difference before you mentioned it. But looking back at the side by side comparison in the video, it looks like maybe a quarter inch smaller. Nothing you’re really going to notice, especially since you probably won’t be using the analog theme.
Can you get maps on the cluster, like some modern cars?
No, unfortunately not. Maybe they’ll add a feature like that in the future.
I am a bit hesitant on buying this. Is this a newer version? Past videos of this product, I've seen, vents had to be trimmed to fit the screen. Your video does not show that. Can you clarify?
I’d say go for it! It completely changes the driving experience. I think it might depend on which car you have, but there’s no cutting needed on the e60.
Thanks! I have an E9x M3@@TheAutoSurgeon
Info on the steering wheel? Or at least the top info lighting. New to bmw as of last week.
I have a full DIY video about the steering wheel on my channel! It has a link to the wheel in the description. Congratulations on your new car!
@@TheAutoSurgeonthank you. Checking it out now
Does this show additional fuel consumption information?
It shows you the same fuel consumption data as your old gauge cluster. But it allows you to see different parameters that you can’t on the OEM cluster like the oil temp, coolant temp, battery voltage, horse power, torque, max speed, and more!
hi bro, where did u bought ur carbon fiber trim, the cic one and ac
I actually made it myself! Carbon fiber skinning.
The speed on the Steering Wheel doesn't match the Digital Gauge Cluster.
Which one is right?
The speed on the gauge cluster is the correct one, I calibrated it using GPS (offset what the computer puts out). The steering wheel is connected via OBD2 so it just reads whatever the computer puts out, there’s no way to offset the speed.
Thanks for the answer @@TheAutoSurgeon
u live in the GTA? area looks familiar lmao
Great intro, does this gauge cluster ever glitch?
It glitched on me one time, I started the car back to back while doing a delivery and the cluster just didn’t turn back on even while I was driving, it just stayed off. I disconnected and reconnected the battery and it came back, but that’s the only “glitch” I’ve had so far! They do regular updates for the software so most glitches get sorted out. I’m sure when they first released the cluster there were a lot more issues, but now it’s pretty solid.
How can i purchase one? Like this the ines im seeing are a bit basic
@TheAutoSurgeon
Omg that m5 v10 sound honestly the greatest sounding bmw.
2 questions..mine stays on even after my car's been off how do I fix that and how do you update it?
What do you mean by it stays on when the car is off? The screen stays on? Or you can just hear the fans running when the car is off? If it’s the latter, that’s completely normal. If the screen stays on, there is something wrong, it’ll be best to contact ID4Motion to see what they say. As for the updates, you go on the ID4Motion website and go to “firmware” and download the respective files onto a USB drive. Plug the USB into the gauge cluster and it will automatically begin the update when it senses the file.
@@TheAutoSurgeon Yea the motor or fan behind the screen stays on. I'll turn the car completely off, get in it later that day or the next and before putting the key in I can hear the fan running. I ended up putting the stock cluster back in to avoid draining my battery and end up stuck at work in the morning. I also noticed when I started the car the screen will display the digital gauge then go to black
Yeah, same with mine, the fan continues to run sometimes. It hasn’t drained my battery, so I think it’s normal. For the second issue, I’m not sure. It’ll be best to email ID4Motion and see if they have a solution for that. Could just be that it needs a software update.
@@TheAutoSurgeon Alright thanks I'll she if that helps. Appreciate your help!!
Old OEM did do temperature, however its locked behind settings.
Yes, but it’s infinitely better to have oil and coolant temps present at all times. Clicking through menus every time you drive the car gets annoying.
@@TheAutoSurgeon Cant argue with you on that one, when can afford it, im defo upgrading mine.
Will this fit in a 1998 z3?
They don’t make a gauge cluster for your car. The may develop one in the future, but it might be unlikely. You can check on their website to see the cars that they have a cluster for!
When you say the analog one do you mean the steering wheel ones?
No, I mean the “analog” looking theme! The one at 6:30.
@@TheAutoSurgeon ah yes i see it now
Can you use it in mph ?
Yes, of course
Is the M logo back?
BMW would take legal actions, if they didn't remove the M logo.
No😂 they removed it in the new updates. I just never updated it because the M logo makes it look more OEM.
Car review?
"promo sm" 🔥
There are much bether options then ID4 Cluster, ID4 costs WAY to much for what it is.
ID4motion has the best quality and UI, in my opinion. It’s the most refined out of the other Chinese ones on the market.
@@TheAutoSurgeon Seems a thad bit expensive ID4: $1065 - $1922 depending on what preloaded themes you choose.
Or another brand: $400 for something that is practically the same, and "open source" and not locked down to you're cars win.
But You might get what you pay for in the end so, solid function and it just keeps working.
Great video never the less, enjoyed it.
Make a video about the meth
Unfortunately i already installed it before starting my UA-cam channel :(
