Absolutely amazing

Thank you so much!!

Thanks!

I did this Digital Dash last week and it’s definitely my most favourite mod so far! You’re an inspiration Ethan, keep up the great work 😊

[@carcreationsyt]

Congrats!! Thanks so much for watching!!

[@MrRdt1970]

Hi James how did you go about coding it Was it easy to do what’s the process

[@JamesPaulUK769]

@@MrRdt1970 hello, I used a guy who knew what to do with the correct software, he’s based in north London

[@964cuplove]

How about adding a marker to the two little circles as I can see about 4 to 6 circiúlar plugs (I assume you talk about connectors / plugs)

[@carcreationsyt]

Good point, thank you.

[@lemanlifestyle]

Off topic, but do you have the partnumbers for the LCI2 dashpanels with LED underglow?

[@carcreationsyt]

They actually require some cables done up. I am doing a video where I outline the process. Editing it as we speak!

[@staz2755]

Hi, I have just subscribed your channel. I am impressed of what I have seen here so far. I am considering to get a mini. Just wondering if you have been considering to install/upgrade ( if it is possible) a head up display? And make a video of it… Thanks and best regards.

[@carcreationsyt]

Thanks so much for the sub! Sorry for the late response! It is possible to install the heads up display but I think I may need a different dash frame so have not put too much effort into that yet. Maybe in the future!

[@bbreedo395]

Great video guys 👍🏽 Just wondering why you need the MOST cable. No body explains why it’s needed🤞🏾🤷🏾‍♂️

[@carcreationsyt]

Thanks for watching! The new mini KOMBI (cluster) requires more data transmission so we have to use the MOST cable to do that

[@joaopedrofonseca5647]

Hello! Great video! I have a 2019 JCW Hardtop, do you know if it is compatible? I am from Brazil and would love to purchase this cluster when visiting the us

[@carcreationsyt]

Send me a dm on insta or an email and I can do up a quote!

[@MrAboutLife]

Do you know if the F60 b35 engine countryman would work with this ? Or it's best to just remove the previous head unit and check for the connections you said

[@carcreationsyt]

It’s probably best to look at the connections as the car’s spec was put together using whatever part they had on hand that met the specifications.

[@luctoulouse]

Good day, Just find your channel. I have a R53, do you think I can do the upgrade? Cheers from Canada.

[@carcreationsyt]

Hello, a fellow Canadian!! Thanks for watching! Unfortunately it will not work for a R series.

[@gabanlange9793]

can the older gear shifter be changed to the newer shorter version?

[@carcreationsyt]

Unfortunately the shorter one is electronic ad the long one is mechanical so they are not compatible to switch.

[@kiddoboy84]

would this work for my mini 2014 Cooper? :S this look sick!! this defo changed the look of the car

[@carcreationsyt]

Absolutely!!

[@universalpenman]

​@@carcreationsytwhat about 2006 R53? 😬😬

[@xocomaox]

What does the red meter next to the fuel level meter (white) indicate? I have a 2022 Countryman and mine does not have this...

[@carcreationsyt]

This is the jcw specific cluster so has some red excitement features. It also has a checkered flag on the rpm’s.

[@xocomaox]

@@carcreationsyt ah... Okay that makes sense. I didn't realize it was so much different! Thought it only had the checkered flag thing.

[@cliftonoquinn1865]

It was because they owned MINI vehicles. They need what they were getting into. They understood the awesome nature of the vehicle REGARDLESS of the POSSIBLE costs of maintenance. I just bought a Cooper S Coupeover the Internet. The dealer said the check engine light was on, but they couldn't figure out why. Without asking, he took $3000 off the price. SOLD! Because I then had bandwidth for a POSSIBLE $3000 in repairs. And I absolutely wanted the coupé S. What I'm saying is, they were MINI people. That's why they did sweat you maintenance "what ifs".

[@carcreationsyt]

Exactly, we love MINIs because it’s in our blood!

[@homebrewGT2]

The Services being taken care of at the dealership has been bleeding me lately. I never missed a maintenance appointment and yet, every time something comes up it's above $1000 to fix lmao I love the car but money doesn't grow in trees lol

[@femic92]

Hey Ethan, Great Update as always. But i wonder why your „speedo-circle-background“ isn’t blue with the new LCI2 head unit? I thought only the old headunit systems which are still working for the digital cluster, would have the black „speedo-circle-background“ I know that you can update the firmware from the old „large display“ headunits, so that the digital cluster turns blue. But I really wonder why you’re speedo is black. I personally prefer the blue background for the speedo, that’s why i can’t get myself to the point upgrading it yet. But now I wonder if you maybe can code the colors? I’m confused.

[@carcreationsyt]

Thanks for the question! I found out that it depends on the bdc version. I can’t currently get the infotainment system dark theme because of that too. Currently on holiday but when I get back I’ll see if I can flash the bdc with new software and I believe that should be the solution. I’ll probably do a video or a KZbin shorts with the results

[@femic92]

@@carcreationsyt thanks for the answer. A video in some sorts would be great. I really wonder if could get the blue themed digital cluster version on my old 6,5inched headunit then with a bdc flash update.. Pls share your results. For now have a great time.

Does anyone know if I can install one of these in my 2013 Mini Cooper Countryman S R60? I just purchased a carbon fiber steering wheel and think this would absolutely make the build. Please let me know, thanks!
