Does the digital cluster not just mirror what you have on the infotainment system or do you have to connect to it via phone mirroring/bluetooth to the infotainment? If bluetoothing to the infotainment, how do you then bluetooth to your phone simultaneously?

Walaikumuslaaam, you need to connect the VC to the headunit from the Settings of the VC

[@everest-vw]

On mine, the ACC increments move in strange increments like 19, 24, 29, etc. Units are all set to mph, but I can't seem to see a calibration option to dial this in; I reckon it's still doing the increments in Kph and converting or something?

Hi, first time coming across your channel. Is there a chance you can show a detailed video of how you removed the motherboard and the whole motors for the needles and how you connected everything up. Im asking as I've seen some tutorials where others have broken some bits off, making the motherboard unable to go back into the old housing. Im also currently adding some mods to my car and was thinking of paying for a VC, but the prices I've seen on FB or Ebay are not worth it.

[@autoapna]

So regarding breaking off the board. Nothing needs to be broken off. Just removed off. So if you ever need to go back to stock. You can do.

On the original digital cluster you can't get the Waze map view but you get its directions. On Android Auto any map app gets its directions mirrored to the compass on the cluster. On CarPlay only Apple Maps but you also get remaining distance, distance to the corner/roundabout and ETA.

[@autoapna]

You do get directions with original VW maps on this as well. I’ll make another video soon explaining all the features

[@eoleite]

​@@autoapna Nice! I was just sharing how the OEM works so it's easier to compare. On the OEM one you can only see the actualMp if you use the built-in navigation. Unfortenaly you can't mirror Waze and Maps as with that one...

Hello there! First, congratulations for the great job and video review, it is very helpful. I am super interested in doing this mod. If you don't mind, could you please clarify a few things for me? 1. I installed an android auto wireless dongle to wirelessly connect my phone with the main media unit screen. Any idea if by installing this digital cockpit, this will interfere or impact me using Android auto wirelessly on the main car media screen? 2. In case my question above is confusing, after installing this cockpit, how do you connect your phone with Android auto to the main median screen unit, via cable or wirelessly? 3. When mirroring my phone screen into the digital cockpit, where is the audio coming out, from the speaker on the mother board (not great quality), or from the car speaker? In other words, is there a way to mirror my phone and get audio from the car speakers at the same time? Thank you so much, and please continue doing your great work on KZbin 👍

[@autoapna]

1. Shouldn’t interfere 2. Connect by Mirroring the screen 3. Sound comes out the car speaker

@@autoapna thank you so much for your response. A couple of weeks ago I installed the digital cockpit. It looks amazing. Pretty happy.
