T6 California Digital Instrument Cluster Upgrade...

[RetroRed5]

Evening all,

I recently had a new digital instrument cluster installed in my T6 California Ocean; whilst I do actually like the standard analogue dials, it did feel a little dated so I took the plunge and had this installed...



As you can see, it really does lift the interior of the T6 and makes it feel like a new bus.

It looks OEM and is very customisable, well worth the investment I think (to me at least).

What does everyone think? Love it, hate it, indifferent?

Cheers.

I like it. Are you going to let us know how much it cost????

What’s the deal with the red surround? Zoom out a bit?

Kudos for doing it to your liking, but I’ll keep mine as it is.

The red surround is part of the factory red comfort dash...

This was part of a larger upgrade that includes a whole bunch of other things, but the digital dash on its own was £724.99, this includes fitting.

Where did you get it from? Looking at head unit and dashboard upgrade from here https://everest-vw.co.uk/products/vw-t6-2015-2020-digital-dashboard-kit

If it stops all the warning lights appearing I'm all for it!

Think it looks great and a good cost point

It's like fine wine, it gets better with age.

Yes, this is the exact one I got; Ant at Everest knows his stuff and does a great job.

I also upgraded the head-unit to the DUDU 7 Auto (11.5") along with full 360 camera system as well as a proper TPMS system; I'll start a new thread with pictures of that at some point.
