PLEASE READ THIS 1ST IF YOU ARE WONDERING IF THIS FITS YOUR CAR:
They have made versions for the Golf 7, Golf 6, GTI, Passat, B8, B7, B6, Scirocco, Tiguan, etc.
I have left a link in the description of this video for the digital dash product page.
When you click on the link you can check for your model. You also have the option to chat with the store directly.
If you are still unsure if they make a version for your car model after looking at the different options, ask the store directly. They will ask you for your year and model as well as a picture of your current dash. After that they will let you know if they have a digital dash for your car or not.
They also have other stores on Ali Express that sell different versions of digital clusters you will just have to search for them
Thanks for watching!
Thanks alot for the reply may you have a good day
Also for A1 2010?
Can this fit the mk5 golf??

How to update firmware?
Dude has every car accessory for sale on Amazon in his car
Bro driving and watching the Miami heat game☠️
I love how you were honest and showed the struggle, I am defiantly more inclined to want to get this installed. Also the way you recorded your phone was just seamless. This video was amazing.
Nice job on your CC man I enjoyed this video for sure! That dash is pretty bad ass even though it is a bit out of my price range
at the moment. I love your interior with the headliner and lighting around the car too.
Great vid. Thanks for sharing. Good to know there is an option for digital cockpit for non MQB models. The only concern is the reliability but in case it craps out down the line you could go back to the original dash.
Looks really great inside the car... hats off man...😀👍🏻
your interior is the coolest thing i ever saw. Had no idea this stuff could be done. I can barely turn a computer on
It looks great love the upgrade, car interior looks amazing too. 👍👍
Watching stuff on your dashboard is crazy, I love that
Man’s watching a game on his dash? 🤯 love your car and the mods. Definitely gotta get my MK6 right!
Just started watching your vids man. Love it. Car looks badass. Love all the cool stuff you have on it. Keep it up man.
Thanks for watching I appreciate it!
first time watching your video I got a 2013 golf your lights look so hard af and your video is actually really detailed and a real personal review that I liked watching
Appreciate man! Thanks for watching!!
@@tridelv702 I have a 2012 Volkswagen Passat do y'all think I'd be able to put this in my vehicle cuz I have to replace my cluster anyway.
@tridelv702 hi. I'm Also 1st time watcing your video and i also did like and appreciate seeing that you did struggle a little bit and that you did show that were an honest cons not just only the pros and the struggle edited out of the video (people tent to show just the highlight reels) now i bought a 2015 VW Passat TSI just yesterday my first VW (I think it is a B7 (Type 3C) its a 1.4L turbo and it runs on Methane and normal gas/petrol so i have 2 fuel gauges and no temp gauge. (I live in Iceland btw) it has just parking sensors 6 cd magazin I own a total of a 1 CD hehe and no navigation but it has Bluetooth so i play spotify through my phone so i want to swap the head unit for preferably a plug and play unit that has android auto if there is any unit like that. Also. There are these B7 B7 B8 but what if the difference of a B+ and a CC?
I don't give many thumbs up on TH-cam videos but you earned it. Nice work.
Thanks so much!!!
Nice bro amazing work respect for you! serious You really have to be patient, and also know what you are doing. I myself would not dare
Dude? Awesome mod and work! Congrats looks great really makes the interior modern !
Thank you!!!
Bro you’re a king for sharing this thank you do much
Excellent installation 👍
Very interesting. It would be interesting to see all settings this dasboard gives you.
Also, do you think it is possible to stream the navigation unit to the dash (assuming it is an android of course?
Love what you’ve done with the car looks awesome 😁
Great job bro. Love my CC as well.
Thanks for watching!
Impressive mate! Good work!
Thanks for checking out the video!
I was interested in digital cockpit for my VW CC but thanks to you, I figured out that it doesn't worth it at all.
Only fancy features and nothing essential.
Thanks for the review.
He wires a digital dash in his old VW, and i tried to find a newish (EV) VW with traditional dials. Found one (last generation eGolf) and love it! No reflections, no dimm display when the sun shines directly on it, just a simple dash that tells me the speed whenever i need it 😁😉
Nice! Luckily I have never had any issues with glare or dimming, the brightness is auto set to max during the day when my headlights are not on and it auto dims at night when my headlights turn on. Some people like things kept simple and there is nothing wrong with that!
@@tridelv702 no, that was just my opinion, i love your work! Im sure yours works fine, but the original has sometimes problems with a deep standing sun, like we often have here in norway! That’s a problem many OEM Displays share, so tried to get analog dials, they work literally everywhere, even if i can barely anything at all. It’s all about the usecase, i think the map display (yours and the eGolf oem) is absolutely cool! 😁👍
@@erebostd oh ok i understand what you mean, some of the newer analog displays almost look digital amd are really nice. Thats awesome that you found one to retrofit and no longer have the glare issues!
Hi,what year si your vw?
@@BLACKHUGONFS 2019 i think, 2020 was the last model year 😉
This is dope I have a 2015 cc sport definitely getting one!
Its definitely worth it!
Your car interior looks sick bro
Very impressive video !! You've done a brilliant job with your cars interior.the lighting effects are awesome..
Very well presented and credit to ya 👍

This would be a nice mod for my 2014 GLI. I’m gonna check this out, subbed!
Thank you so much!!!
You did it ? I wanna put in on my 2016 jetta tsi
@@damiangalindo7053 No I didn’t. Still working on a navigation mod and rear air conditioning vents
Great video! Thanks for the great content! You have my like & subscription
Glad to see these are showing telrmetry. Not a fan of the fuel gauge not working but I'd expect the low fuel LED to trigger.
Whip lookin sick!
Appreciate it!!!
I bought a similar dash to this one for my Scirocco and returned it, it had all these issues and some other ones! I then bought a version that had a silver trim on it around the edge and it was lightyears ahead of this, most of the issues discussed here were fixed if not all of them and it communicated much better with the car than this one. The easiest way to identify it is the plug on the back, if it is a white plug like in this video it will be the one with these issues, mine has a green plug with a latch similar to the plug that the original dashboard used that is likely to be the one that works. Things like the time on your dashboard works (my car has a clock in the radio and on the dials at the top as it is an R line, the dash in this video couldn't set them and they were just zeroed but this one did, loads of other small issues like in this video also work correctly. Highly recommend this version of the dash it feels closer to OEM.
Awesome man ❤
So glad i have the analouge meters on my GTI Clubsport MK7. Always hated the digitalism on cars. If i payed this or that money for it, i want it so real i can grab it! Never the less good video! 👍
Thanks for watching!
🐐 VW gang, cool video learned alot
Wow thats a beautiful interior
Thanks for watching!
Badass speedo job, also, awesome soft strobe led lights running through the dash & doors, what strip is that and where can I get it? Would look cool on my vw t6!
Damn bro... the inside of your car is a whole disco 😆
Great job man. Congrats on the mod. Thanks 🙏🏿 for helping me with making the decision to wait until there is one with update interface as I need waze in there. Have to ask did you try linking the android unit to get waze or google maps in there
Thanks for watching bro!! I actually did and now that you say that I wish I spoke on it in the video.
So nothing happens when I hook up the USB port directly to my phone. I didn't try with an iPhone but somewhere on the product page I believe, I read that there was addition features for android auto but as far as I can tell it doesn't work hooked up directly.
I think what I am going to do is find a head unit that has a HDMI out port and make sure that it has the capability to send a video signal that is separate from what is being displayed on the head unit if that makes sense.
That way I can have android auto show on my dash and my music, etc show on the head unit.
I just need to research which radio has those features otherwise the only option is screen mirroring or that AI box with GPS that I showed in the video.
@@tridelv702 did it work?
Hey great video very informative!! Do you have one on the installation of the headliner lights?
Hi great job and looks really nice 👍 Can you share the website from where did you buy the cluster mate.
How cool does this look,going to see if they do an audi one 👌
Im sure they do, i saw this awesome screen that goes on the passenger side of the dash in the trim. I wanted it so bad but it was made for audi only 😫
Excellent how-to and review. I like how you're so thorough with the functions and describe how they work (or not).
Your interior is siiiiick!!
Hello Friend, congratulations on the very complete video. I wonder if ACC works properly and SIDE assist too ?
I installed this panel however does not enable my acc, side assist, easy open
Damn that's tight.
Nice video. Looks awesome. I’ve heard the latest update gives you an option for mph readout. Has this been added or was I misinformed? Only reason I haven’t bit on yet.
It's look very premium, I like it, good job, next upgrade it's should be to change your car steering wheel cover to perforated artificial leather.
Thank you! I have been thinking about getting one of those covers they are nice but i have also been debating on a retrofit flat bottom steering wheel install 😩 in the mean time i might just take your suggestion though!
I saw this item in January on AliExpress but at that time there were literally 2 videos on TH-cam.
Thank you for your detailed review
If you want to retrofit a steering wheel of newer models leave me a DM on Instagram and I will help you
Thanks for watching! and i just may have to do that i have been wanting to do a retrofit steering wheel for a while now
Hopefully you get the check engine light and your TPMS sensor checked out. Nice video.
I currently don't have a check engine light some of the clips were filmed while the acc was on only but I bought new wheels and did not add the TPMS in them so I always have that light on until I buy the sensors
Thanks for watching tho!
Nice video, didn't even have a new cluster on my radar til I watched this. Definitely gonna think about doing it myself in my gti. Can I ask what you're using for those dynamic interior lights on your doors?
Thanks for watching! My previous video on my channel is actually about them with a link in the description to them
Battery voltage for 12v commonly run in the high 13 to low 14volts to account for voltage drop under load. The powered accessories will be regulated to run at 12.25 to 12.50ish volts so they dont fry. But the power source will always run a volt or 2 more. Headlights and the a/c will put the most load on the car
I never commented on this previously because i wasnt sure if you were saying this because i said i didnt know if the volmeter was accurate or not. But i am curious is that why you wrote this comment?
@@tridelv702 more than likely for others who are doing the same or interested in doing the same (like myself)
@@user-xx5zx5sm6o oh ok i see, i was just confused. The reason i said it wasnt accurate is because i didnt test it vs my voltmeter and it reads about a full volt higher than my headunit reads. So i am sure it is pretty far off. My voltage is higher than most stock cars tho due to my aftermarket parts for my car audio. Just wanted to clarify on my end.
Great video! Any firmware updates, functionality improvements, or figure out anything else?
goooood franklin
Okay so to get the satnav to display and it can be done.
Use screen record on your phone and cast the output :)
Theres even apps to help you do it.
That’s awesome
I can just imagine playing a damn movie or video game on it while driving being distracted and running into someone or a parked car. Real smart
Watching NBA while driving is crazy bro 😂
nice broski
Nice video & editing mate! Be interesting to see where they go with it next.
Yea hopefully they release firmware updates over time! Thanks for watching!
I come back to this video from time to time thinking about doing this to My 2010 vw cc, 1. I dont care for screen mirroring or using a hdmi but it's a shame I can't have Google maps on there by default like in newer models. 2. Shame that the time and units aren't in Fahrenheit and only 24 hours I wonder if you found how to fix that 🤔, 3. The MPG is want I care about the most knowing how good my fuel Economy is. Those are the 3 reasons I have heald off on buying this, I wonder how this has held up I know many others in the vw cc group have this.
Hey thanks for your video.
Does the new digital dashboard show the drl lamp when its on?
Can you choose the autohold function in the menu? I
👏best the best off the best👍💯
Where did you get the wire that goes in the trim ( tron style ) and the headliner stars? Looks epic
Rob
I have videos of all of those installs on my channel along with the links to the products in the description of each video
Man...excuse me the question but where are you from? I noticed this Passat doesn't have Position Lights in the switch! This is weird! LoL
Thanks and awesome change! Maybe get the same setup on mine!
Cool vid. Im wanting to do upgrades to my 2013. its been a year since this video was made. hows the unit working so far?
Hi Tride lv, i have a golf 5 and golf 6 speedometer fits perfectly. So does this digital one also means fit for my golf 5?
FM Transmitter probably sends the sound of whatever you’re watching on the cluster to that radio channel. So you set radio to match cluster and the car stereo will play it.
You know what you might be on to something! Lol i did not even think of that im going to test that out later, thank you!
Any chance you could do a video on your rear view mirror to see how you like it and how you set it up?
Thank you for checking out the video!
So, yes! I have been procrastinating on the rear view cam for a while now lol.
I recorded the whole install I just need to finish recording the features and my thoughts of it.
Thank you for reminding me you have given me a bit of a push to hurry up and finish that video lol
are the odometer readings preserved? VW/Audi used to have this in the cluster, but maybe that function moved to the ECU or other modules. I had to replace my instrument cluster in my '07 Audi A4 once (with digital odo), and they actually programmed the old mileage number into the new cluster. They actually asked me what number I wanted them to program in. I was honest, but it was easy to not be honest about it.
I now have an eGolf. I wonder if it preserves the eGolf specific analog gauges, like the available power meter. When the battery heats up from hard driving, the needle moves down telling you that the power is limited until the battery cools off. Luckily, the car never dips so far as to put restrictions on the throttle as I'm driving heavy footed.
I think FM radio is for use car audio when your phone connected
Awesome
Hi....thanks to you I bought the digital speedometer, you got your car nice 👍, I need your help ,I follow every step to put the digital speedometer and my car doesn't start....something like that happened to you or its just me...any help I'll appreciate, thanks in advance 😊
Hi. I have question please. Am willing to buy one for my golf 6 and its a trendline with wireless multifunctional buttons and am just wondering how can I change parameters and stuff. Very instructif vidéo. Thank you so much
Nice video man!
What type of ambient light did you use in the dash. Do you have a link please 😃
The link to the lights is in the description of my ambient light install video. Thanks for watching!
Dope asf ❗️❗️❗️ when can I bring my car ?
Lol lemme know when you are in town we can schedule something!
That’s nice
The interior on your car is fucking sick man
so for the gas does the gauge work correctly and its just the range and mpg thats messed up? and did they ever fix the Celsius?
i have a volt vc 2013 would this also work for me? and not have any problems like not using extra power from my battery
cool!❤️
How you rate the cluster having had it for a few months? Strongly considering getting this for my GTI, I don't think the regular MK7 GTIs got the digital cluster and I'd love to get one but I'm just curious how this cluster is long term! Have you had any issues with it?
An important question is it not necessary to reprogram that with the vcd or is it just to install and that's it??
Start of the video, the hidden screw is behind the light switch. Pull the light switch out and there’s another T20 torx behind it 👍🏼
Hahaha
My dude watching the game while he rolling!
Do they sell one for a 15 plate polo?
Looks amazing
Brother does this upgraded dash work on the mk6 jetta
Hi! Can i ask if the fuel gauge is adjustable since it is digital?
Hi, this is very useful item. Congratulation.
I have passat b7 2013 model. I want to buy this, can you tell me do you have any problem for android stabilization, lag prblem ect. ?
Thank you
Does this work for a 2008 eos Volkswagen convertible
Bro amazing video but I ordered the wrong digital cluster, I ordered for a B8 Passat and I have a B7 Passat GT (2018) once I ordered the right cluster, it works fine, but it has my mileage in Kilometers instead of miles… how do I change it to Mike’s so I can see the correct mileage??? Please help
Is installing the wireless dongle mandatory? I just care about CarPlay in my centre screen not mirroring my phone.
The innovation is cool but i gotta say i like my analog gauges
If only there was something like this for Golf 4.
Where you get your stereo from, I'm ready to upgrade my stereo on my CC, them lights on the upper liner looks hard. How you dod that
What’s nice too is the central dash upgrade also if u can do
I was wondering where you got that led elblem from ? I can’t find one anywhere for the cc ?
What about your tire and battery symbols seems to be flashing?
What are you using to get the star lights on your headliner?
