I’d love a cluster for spirited drives. RPM, gear, oil temp. Large font. Very simple.
At the risk of sounding critical, this one is off the mark by a country mile.
- Expensive (and not returnable ?) Yes, totally agree
- Imperfect fit Fit is fine, no gaps and all squared up nicely
- Wrong car image Yes dissapointing to say the least
- Bad English (door is not closed, why not ‘door open’?) Well actually "door is not closed" isn't wrong, as it may not have closed properly hence not open but not closed either!
- Not plug and play (Loads of programming/adjustments) So do the factory ones (on current BMW's), but you don't see that, but once set up it's finished with.
- Not information I need when I need it As in? The readouts for Constant MPG, Coolant Temp, Oil Temp, Distance to empty and Battery voltage can be set to be on the screen in all themes and if you are in Sport+ theme you can also have readings from Start up (mileage, elapsed time, Average fuel and average speed)
- Unknown performance with glare Yeah there is some glare, but not a lot. The only issue I've had is with the sun being in the absolute worst place, which was directly behind me (between the headrests), low in the sky and I was going down hill, but that was the only time and I could still see the speed numbers
I find it gimmicky, made to be flashy. As-is, even if gifted, I’d pass. It needs work.
It reminds me of those stereos CD players with removable front from the 90s. They had 36 flashy colours, buttons and functions like they were going out of fashion, when all I wanted was good music.
