If you're finding it hard to source a UK cluster, also enquire with retek.de but make sure it's a unit in MPH.

He has a 864 now so retek.de should have plenty of euro 974

Very true, Ed.

The problem with Retek is that you pay a premium, and I'm not sure what the going rate is for coding x73/74 clocks these days?

Very difficult to code a used 74 cluster. Dealers can't unless it's a brand new one. The only guy on here that can do this is Kalu, who retrofitted my 974 highline. Fantastic guy & very helpful. Drop him a pm, he may well be able to help/advise you

Hi everybody and Merry Christmas!
Does anyone know if a dashboard with VAG number: 1K6 920 864
supports Micronas CDC 3217 / 3297 / 3272 MCUs  or NEC MCU + 24C32?
I want to buy the appropriate hardware in order to reprofit it myself :stupid:
Thanks :tree:

Happy Christmas  :santa: every one!!

If possible, I'd like some advice about my midline to highline upgrade.
I've read everything I can find about it on this and other forums, but I keep getting myself confused.
I currently have a 1K0 920 960 Midline dash in the car at the mo. I think I need a 1K0 920 970 for a highline upgrade (I have a GT TDI, not as easy to find as petrol  :sad1: ).  I know that any clocks after 06 need to be done by VW (or a couple of guys on here).
So, can I conceivably look for any highline clock on fleabay, as long as they're manufactured before 2006? Or would I need 1K0 920 970 for me?
Any help would be greatly appreciated :driver:
Also, does Vag Can Commander require another lead? I have VCDS Hex+Can at the mo, and don't want to buy another lead just for this mod!

Thanks,

Dave  :smiley:

Does anyboby knows if i buy a new cluster comes with the immo pin?
So if i have a cluster and the code, i just need micronas programmer and vag can commander?
Is it the same for a used cluster that comes with the code too?

depends on how many doors your car has and what year.

what is your current one

there is also a chance you have a highend one but it has been coded not to display.


....Is that just the convenience module that might not have been coded to display, or the Midline 'puter?

How do I find out what version my Midline is? My GTI is a July 05 build and so a 06 spec build apparently.

Hi Robin,

IIRC you can find it through VCDS (perhaps JKM would do it for a pack of Mcvitties finest  :grin:)

ideally you would need 1k0 920 970 but you can also use 971 and 972    :happy2:
