Wow that looks absolutely amazing!!! Can you detail out what you've bought and costs? I have the Grom Audio but that central dash looks absolutely great!! I woul dbe maybe willing to just do the lot, as I am about to decide on selling or keeping the car and this would be ideal to upghrade dash and centre console which are the 2 bits for me that feel a bit dated!! I have a few marks etc on my leather but overall I am happy with my car if I can get my emissions sorted.

I was also debating to either keep the car or sell it. I had it sitting in the garage for over 7 years. I decided to sort out all the gremlins and then start using it as a daily. Problem was that the tech was very dated. Did a lot of research and picked these two upgrades.

The digital cluster you can get on amazon from here:

The infotainment system is located here:

A great video on how to install the infotainment system here:

OK so couple of questions maybe for you @zissis is this:

1. Did the dash current dials etc behind the steering wheel pop out ok? I have removale tools so is it just prying that old clocks out?
2. Is the dash for the centre ICE change and clocks Piano black? Is your car all Piano black trim?

Assume you got the milage and TPMS sorted ok?

@CUE99T ,
The clock does not pry out of the center console Infotainment panel, it is screwed on from the rear, as far as removing the instrument cluster wood trim, you use your fingers to remove it, two in the vent, the other two to the right as shown

Ah when I say clocks @Johnny Hotspur GT I just mean the ones for RPM and Speed behind the steering wheel not the centre console.

And thats good to know as wasn't sure how this would pop out. I think I might get my steering sheel upgraded and the clocks and the dash, but not sure yet.

I have a new thread to start that is of interest if I did this set of upgrades.....

The whole wood piece behind the steering wheel comes out and then the cluster is unscrewed as one piece. I am attaching the installation instructions here for reference. Due to time constraints and some other upgrades my installer is working on he has not updated the software yet. Hold off on buying until I can confirm the update fixes everything. My car is piano black so I went with that trim color. They have 2 of the different wood grains as well.

So the mileage data's in one of the Bentley's modules and it shows on that page in the new cluster. Chances are I'll have no issue saving it to the new cluster. I like the cluster anyway, so I'll probably keep it even if the mileage doesn't transfer.

I absolutely love this look. And, it will be the primary reason why I’ll keep my Gen # 2 Continental GTC Speed instead of upgrading to the Gen # 3.

Please keep us in the loop if compatibility issues and other considerations arise. This looks like a total game changer, at least for me.
