@@MickyleMcgowan I'm a bit late to the party 😂 but does that same cluster fit the pre lci models as well? looking to upgrade my 2015 118i and shes a pre facelift
@@MickyleMcgowan ah alright cool, you reckon it's gonna display the actual model e.g 118 or will it always say 135? sorry just making sure of a few things I'm really considering it😅🙌
Yo I need some help I’ve just got the normal instrument cluster (not extended) and I’ve been told I need a most optic cable run from head unit to the cluster but the cluster has no connection point as it’s not extended just a regular one what do I do ?
Hi, nice video, such a big difference! I have an F21 series, and my cluster is the same like yours before the upgrade, my question is, how much did you pay for this 6WA cluster? Thank you! :)
Such a big difference! Yours would be better as it's the 6wb, have a look at my channel I've made some videos on my 4 series which would defo help you out
This one wouldn't work if you don't have navigation as it uses the optic cable to function correctly, you can still upgrade to the black panel display just not the extended one shown here
@@MickyleMcgowan whzn you say don’t work, you mean don’t work at all or i will just lack some options (gps ones) ? If anyone is reading this and can offer more explanation, please do !
Hi, I was wondering if you can help. My old cluster has 2 wires going into it. I’ve ordered a black cluster to upgrade but that only has one port? Can you help??
You bought the non extended cluster, the easy and quickest way to tell if it's the extended like mine is count how many needles there are if it's 3 you've got the right one if there's 4 like yours it's the wrong one
Unfortunately not these are for f2x cars for f3x the big upgrade would be a 6wb digital cluster they can cost from £600 -£900 then if its not new it'll need virginising and all cluster need coding
Hi, what headunit did you replace for compatibility with your 6WA cluster? I can see it's still an ID4, but with navigation greyed out, so I'm assuming you've not opted for an emulator? Many thanks!
I went with a business nav unit (id4) at the time I never had the emulator in as I thought it was broken but I tried it 2 days ago and it worked so the navigation is fully functional
@@MickyleMcgowan Cool! Was it an NBT EVO unit or just NBT? Wondering if you're planning on the ID5/6 conversion/upgrade for CarPlay if you've got the EVO unit?
It's a nbt business nav (entrynav) I was planning on doing so but it makes no sense cost wise and I want android auto, I've taken delivery of a Linux carplay/android auto unit so I'll be making a video on that soon
If it's from another car then yeah but thats what virginising the cluster is, it'll set the cluster to 0 miles and once coded it automatically picks up your miles
Thanks for recommending that cheap spoiler, looking to add it to my 116i.
No worries, i highly reccomend it
@@MickyleMcgowan I'm a bit late to the party 😂 but does that same cluster fit the pre lci models as well? looking to upgrade my 2015 118i and shes a pre facelift
@jarodschoeman86 yeah it does, my car was a 2013 pre lci model
@@MickyleMcgowan ah alright cool, you reckon it's gonna display the actual model e.g 118 or will it always say 135? sorry just making sure of a few things I'm really considering it😅🙌
Unfortunately you only get options for the m135i and m140 for 1 series models, you can always leave it blank if you need to

I have a similar car, do you mind sharing where you got this installed as you sound quite local to me

Thanks for watching bro 👊🏾 luckily I got mine for £180
@@MickyleMcgowan Damn, too cheap!
In Italy it’s arround 600,00€ - 650,00€
Thank you for the information!
@@MickyleMcgowanWhere did you find that cluster for £180 mate Jesus that’s a steal
Got really lucky! No worries
I got it from eBay, the guy I bought it off was supposed to get it fitted to his car but he sold it and had it there
I had digital clusters fitted to my f31, makes a big difference. I also have the red stop start button. What other easy mods can you recommend?
Such a big difference! Yours would be better as it's the 6wb, have a look at my channel I've made some videos on my 4 series which would defo help you out

@charlowki it won't work at all as it needs that cable plugged in
@@MickyleMcgowan i see, thank you for your help ! You saved me some $$$
Hw much do they normally charge for virginizing? Im from uk aswell
Very informative video, thanks!
How you got that big speedmeter there? Normally there would be many things like you milage etc...
With the lci-2 cluster they changed it to this layout as standard
@@MickyleMcgowan thanks!
I did this too and it looks sick but only thing that sucks is that I can’t use cruise control anymore
thats a shame there was defo a mistake in the coding which can be rectified
Curious as to if installing on my 120i would the M135i logo be able to be replaced ?
Yes you can have it blank or the m logo
Would this work in a 3 or 4 series?
Who did you use to program the clocks
Forgot his name but his info is in the bio
MMI box for CarPlay 😉
Hi mate, just wondering what was the process like when you changed the head unit? Does it require any coding?
Hey mate, it's the second time for me so was straight forward in terms of changing but just make sure you have someone that can code the system
This 6WA Cluster might work on 116i f20 ? f21 ?
It looks amazing
Hey, this will definitely work on your 116i it fits all f2x cars
I’m thinking about doing this on my 2016 bmw 220i, it has nbt and navigation will it be a direct fit? Or do I need to buy extra stuff like you did?
With you it'll be a direct fit as your car will have the most cable installed, you'll just need to get the cluster virginized and coded to the car
Did you have tamper dot?
No, you'd only have one if it wasn't virginized properly or coded properly
@MickyleMcgowan I am definitely getting this extended cluster looks so good!
Hi, I was wondering if you can help.

Would it fit an f30? Looks so good- also how much would labour costs be?

Hi mick, I just retrofitted this 6wa cluster on my 2013 m135i too but the oil temp doesn’t show up. How did you make this? Thanks.
did you code it yourself?
Hey, i just wanted to ask is it possible to fit the same cluster in a f20 lci 116?
Hey, yes it'll definitely work the fits all F2x cars
Hi mate,
Will nbt support the most cable?
hey, if you have NBT you'll already have the most cable
hi Mate .... what do mean by virginising the cluster
Wiping the miles back to 0 (resetting it)
@@MickyleMcgowan Hi Mate what if i want to put the miles i have on my car would that be possible
Hi Bro. Is the color of the needle from white to red can be changed via coding or is it sport mode???
not sure if you can alter it via coding but the needles turn red once your headlights come on
@@MickyleMcgowan Thanks Man
Hi i have a 116d msport manual does it matter which cluster you use for manual and auto
No it wouldn't matter the cluster can be used for both
where did you get the cluster from ?
Bought it on ebay
hi mate .. how much did you pay for the c 6wa cluster
Luckily I managed to get it for £170
@@MickyleMcgowan bargain looks immaculate.. looking myself and they range from £250 -£600 for mint ones
Who did you get it virginised and coded from and what did it cost ya. Any details would be appreciated pal 👍
I left his details in the description, all together to virginise and code to the car it cost £180
@@MickyleMcgowan seem worth it man
Do you have to mileage correct it?
