I have a set of Highline clocks from a 2007 Jetta TDI 947B wanted to put them into my 2005 Golf TDI

Do you mean 974 cluster? I've not heard of a 947 one. If so, Kalu on this forum can help. He retrofitted a 974 highline for me.

Yeah sorry 974 B. My bad=Typo !!
Would like to do this mod too, has the R look about it 

great write up!

When I did mine, I had a small problem with matching the cluster up to the ECU and my car wouldnt start!  Didnt realise at first and I nearly pood myself!

Thankfully I found out what the problem was and quickly fixed the issue!

Hi James,

Great write up very detailed, I just ordered a 972A cluster from ebay in the states. Should arrive next week, can't wait the MFA+ looks the business.

Finally, did my mid to highline conversion and the whole operation went thru without a blip!
Simply love the new look! nagivation included!
The only problem is, I realised that the "convenience menu" is missing from the settings list.
Is it because my car is not equipped with this, or did I missed out any steps.
If former, what do I need to do to get it in. Change the central electronics module?

you need a highend convenience module

Thanks Ed! Any idea what's the part number?

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.

Mine is a 06 5-dr. Let me go get my installer to find out the PN. keeping my fingers crossed its just a case of not coded. Thanks again!

I would like you help here guys..
My midline cluster has VAG number: 1K6 920 864.
Can i upgrate it to highline and what part number should it be?
Can i do it with VCDS ang VAG Commander or do i have to visit  VW? 

You can do it with Genuine Vag commander (not the cheap ones on ebay)
Or the dealer with a new cluster

Now i have to find a 1K6 920 874 cluster.
Does anyone know where to look for it?
Jim.

German eBay seems to be the place where this sort of thing turns up. Post a thread in our Wanted section as well.

Does this one fit for me?

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.
