Hi, has anyone tried to install an instrument cluster from restyle (2017 ..2019) version to 2014 version ?
Can be compatible ?

Mariom79, there has been a couple of posts on this subject on the older QQ’s, but I cannot remember ever seeing a conclusion that a modification was actually done. When you search the web there appears to be different Typ No’s so there must be differences out there even on the earlier QQ’s (electrics / shape whatever). Whether these are Model related Petrol / Diesel / Specs no idea - Dave 😏
There are a few posts in “Search” also.
Just an example from German Web :

DaveBerlin - some differences are fundamental

Looking at your images, the first one is a diesel and the second one is a petrol.

Perhaps you could advise why you're asking the question? Do you have a faulty one you're wanting to replace or is there something in the newer one that you want?

Hi, the reason is because i would like to upgrade the nav unit, but there are some issues or missing information with the old instrument cluster.

I see...

Well good luck - no one's reported replacing the instruments before and even doing that you may run into problems elsewhere.

Gloucester, Sorry but I do try to inform and thought I had but obviously not. Perhaps you misunderstood what I wrote, but I did mention “Differences” / Petrol / Diesel” see below, so what is the problem ? - Dave 😷

What you will have to review here is the electrical interface specifications between two different units. They won't be the same and I don't know what they might be. Its likely a hiding to nothing and thats apart from whether they are physically the same or not.

I think it should work with no problem. When activating the instrument cluster, you will need to enter car specification via Consult.
