Hello everybody, It's been a while since I've been on the platform and I hope everyone is doing great. I apologize in advance in case I'm posting this in the wrong place or there has been already posted about this but based on my research I couldn't find anything. I got myself a lovely w204 2009 cdi and unfortunately it has the basic instrument cluster. It doesn't even have a display except for the one that shows the mileage, below is a photo attached I found online. I was surprised you could even get them with this basic instrument cluster back in 2009. Anyway, I'd like to upgrade to a newer one, even to a facelift one if it's possible and to go along upgrade the steering wheel as well since the original one only has 2 buttons since there's no menus on the dash to scroll through. Has anyone done this? Is there anything else I have to keep in mind except for swaping and coding the new dash and steering wheel?
not sure about the cluster but the wheel can be upgraded to anything you want
facelift w204, prefacelift w205 or facelift w205 (aka the 2020 wheel)
these arnt plug and play; you will either need to solder some wires yourself or find a company that does the work for you. carismo or rucarbon are best in the biz for this kind of work
