Colour Hi Line Display
« on: December 24, 2009, 11:42:31 pm »
One of my mates was saying that you can change the Hi-line display for an equivalent one that has more/different colours in it?

Has anyone come across this and is there an element of truth to this?

Possibly?  1 of the Audi models has a color screen think it might be the S4?  but if its the same size and has the same connections on the screen then should in essence work????

Im going to change mine to the mk6 white screen once I find a cheap enough cluster

Would these be a straight swap on a GTi Highline display?

And why do you hate having an 07 car...???  :confused:

Perhaps you've just not found the right person.

Ben at Shark Performance has the pukka kit.  He should be able to help, tell him Stu referred you.

That said a dealer shouldn't be totally ruled out as they might not charge as much as you think.

Ohh, ill look into that tomorrow. Thanks.

My local dealer was going to do it for £329 fitted, but i just cant justify it at the minute. Especially when GTi clocks with highline can be got from £60 on ebay!!

This is potentially the best news of 2010! I assume this is just a recent technological development for private garages to be able to do it for post 06 cars?

No, not really you just need to have made the investment in the equipment.  Many people that say they can only do the earlier ones can only do so because they have a clone of the device which is unsupported so that when new units are added to cars they cannot be dealt with.  Ben has bought the correct licensed equipment.
