I successfully retrofitted the m5 instrument cluster and now I have the M view hud and everything is like the m5 cluster. I couldn't of done this without Vick from http://www.bimmercoder.com/ I highly recommend him if you're interested in doing this.

That's cool...
I asked this question over half a year ago.
Are the driving modes still retained with the M5 cluster?

Nice job. If you download the forum app, you can upload from your phone.

Can you share the costs for everything?

the drive modes don't show up in the cluster but it still on the idrive screen. I plan on retrofitting the mdrive switches they just didn't come in yet so I'm just waiting.

Have you got the part number for the cluster? I've looked on ebay and there are quite a few different part numbers.
Also please let me us which year model yours is.
Thanks

62108746455
62108747993
62108747209
62108089395

all of those are the part numbers for the cluster the reason why there is so many cause people sell used clusters with the old part number so any cluster with these part numbers are the m5 ones and also make sure you get a virginized or a brand new one. I have a 2018 550

+1 on Vic. He is the best. He knows his shit, just not on coding, but help with installation and wiring. He is also incredibly responsive, unlike a lot of other coders I have dealt with waiting days for a reply.

Now the next question here is, anyone know if a LCI M5 dash would work on the G30? This would be the fully digital dash. Hmmmm, Joe, you wanna try it? lol

that is actually easier if you have a id7 g30 all you have to do it go in bimmercode and do it cause they have the same clusters but if you're talking about id6 cars you have to change the bdc to bdc_3 and the head unit to hu_mgu

Surprising upgrading or retrofitting a cluster doesn't tempt me, nor does ID7. The larger 12.3" screen definitely does though but it's complicated, not a DIY for me and a very expensive project.

in my opinion the 2018 and 19 cluster for the m5 look the best and id6 is way easier than id7 also the 12.3" screen doesn't really match the interior it looks very misplaced like a tesla

Is agree. ID6 and the screen in our cars is more than fine. I actually don't spend much time in iDrive. I use it for my settings and then I'm almost always in Apple CarPlay.

Was the M View HUD coded in or were there hardware changes made? This would be good to know if it is possible to code the HUD without any physical modifications outside of coding.
