It would likely be an expensive swap. You would need to replace both the instrument cluster and the headunit, and I believe most cars which switched from 6WB to 6U3 also have a newer BDC as well. Not sure if that would need to be replaced, but even still with just the first 2 it would be pricey.

All parts are used
Mgu HU and Kombi must have Vin and FSC assigned to the Car
I bought a set ( HU, KOMBI and central display from Europe with vin and fsc ) after I did installation they remotely coding and did certification for fsc
