My instrument cluster was starting to fail and I was contemplating having it repaired by Tanin Auto or buying it new. I struggled to find any new ones for less than $1200 and TaninAuto wanted about $800 for the refurbishment.
I found this (https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256...t_main.16.75a818029S31Zz&gatewayAdapt=glo2usa) after checking every 6 months and this one finally showed up. I YOLOd it and bought one. It took a couple of weeks and finally arrived.
Installation was very simple and basically doing what you do to remove the original but in reverse. Two caveats. The controller for mine had no port and through back and forth on whatsapp, the engineer for their company helped me find the right wires to connect.
I spliced them up and connected both the USB port and control to the back of the head unit. I routed them out of the slot where the factory locker comes out of left of the steering wheel.
Sorry for the bad pic here but here's what it looks like. Plug and play.
The screen booted up and looks gorgeous. Everything seems to work fine except for the VGRS light always being on and the coolant temperature gauge not working. I have some back and forth with their engineers and they create a patch file to address it. I can't attach the file but I do have it if someone needs it. The patch file resolves everything including the gear indicator
