Lightbulb 04' turbo gauge

I called gert today,and asked him about the center gauge that is on the 04' turbo...The only difference is that is says turbo ...I love that,and when i asked him how much,i was kind of shocked!!! 1400euro's....I think it's crazy...He told me the whole cluster has to be changed...Has anyone done this yet? Also i do have the alum gauges...

Mansour,

Well, if that is the universal RUF cluster display, the I would not get it because it does not have the multi-function display. I think the cluster lights green at night, which is not a good idea, because green is one of the least visible colors in the color spectrum. (Red is the best)

I prefer aluminium gauges though - maybe I'll change the LEDs to blue

Red is not good if you are 40-something years old unless you are driving with bifocal or trifocal glasses. Ask any Audi or BMW owner - the gauges / numbers will be " fuzzy " . MBZ and Lexus know that - that's why their cars have the really bright white -light gauges for their " mature " buyers.

No, it's just a label.
