Upgrade to instrument cluster

Not my cup of tea but nice to see upgrades. Not sure if this has been posted.

If you want to go from analog to digital, that’s a pretty clean setup! I’m on the fence, but can’t deny it’s a cool piece of kit.

Read up on this in more detail. A lot of functions won't work anymore. You'll have to switch back to the OEM cluster for service reset for example.
Functions like dynamic cruise or other convenience functions won't work.
Good looking display but not engineered to the end.

yes, I noticed there were a bunch of features they didn’t show in the cluster so I wondered whether it was just not detailed in the video or a new product that will be updated. The sales page didn’t mention much in that way. I’m not a tech guy so wondered whether stuff just fed into the display and the cluster button was just replaced with a feature in the display..

Looks like this had also been posted on just the standard W-212 forum so it’s fine if this thread is closed…

I bet with the right amount of time and expertise Someone can code this instrument display to your VIN and in the future activate all of the features/monitoring systems

I was gonna get something like this for my 2016 BMW 550i and the seller was able to take my VIN and customize the head unit to have full functionality, and it also came with ability to interface with the head up display that I have.

I say keep the thread up especially that not everyone from the W212 AMG forum go on the W212 forum.
