Best instrument cluster retrofit for a pre-facelift

The flat 2010 cluster with a 120p screen looks rather bland. Is there anything better than a straight up 2013 x204 facelift upgrade? There are no digital screens yet? Are they interchangable with C300, maybe amg c63?

I have had the same question. Any idea how hard it is to install a 2013 cluster? I have a 2012 and my wife has a 2013. I do prefer the newer look.

I've done the swap at the shop, they transferred all old data to a new one. I also didn't use the black frame, it's now silver on silver.

They have full digital ones out now. I think they look a bit ridiculous.
