the mk5 clocks are fairly easy to take apart so you may be able to swap the faces and needles over, but it would light up red and white.

your best bet would be sciroocco clocks as they have the same form factor as the MK5 but with a design similar to the MK6.  One of the big issues with the white maxidot screens/computers is they run on the new BAP protocol so you will have issues getting them to talk to your car without changing alot of the computers.

It can be done as the Bora was available (in Mexico I think) with a mk5 interior and mk6 dials and heater controls. You'd need all the relevent electronic modules as well. I was considering it but since I'm selling my car I abandoned the idea

Maxitrol,

I have a set of clocks from a eos coming my way, they have the white and black highline.

I got them cheap so was going to see if i could put the front dial portion of the cluster on the back part of my existing cluster which is also highline. Purely an experiment.

 I have white dial lighting in my existing highline cluster due to an led swap.

Hi mate,

Im afraid i havnt, im going to do a load of pics once iv done the skyline led tailight mod!!

Hopefully next week.

Im sure someone on here has done it though??? It just looks like the new displays but with a red highline instead of black!!

My other half hates it! she liked the blue so i might be changing back, in which case they might come up for sale  :happy2:
