I tried to search for this answer but can't seem to get one. I'm either getting it does work and the other half says it doesn't work.


Has anyone successfully coded that cluster into a f30?

If you are going to spend the money why not get a 6wb?

There is a huge price difference, and I personally like the look of the cluster.

But it might seem I might have to go all digital instead

I seem to recall that someone did it around 18-24 months ago.

I saw a couple that been fitted but none of them said it worked 100%

That's what I thought I remembered as well.

It works but not to the full extent. I saw a few threads a while back because I myself wanted to do the swap since the orange backlight is ugly as he** but it won't work with the F30 100%. I'd say about 90% of the way there. All error codes are gone but they had some issues with the gear position not showing and etc. So I guess if you just want the speedo and rev counter to work, then you can go for it but I personally want it to be 100% functional. Hence, I just gave up on it.

I'm the same way, if it's not 100% I rather go with 6wb.

It won't be fully functional. Just did one recently and got it to not show transmission malfunction and rpm lights work. The gear selector area is missing though, if we code that in it triggers a malfunction or the rpm lights stay red. Tried multiple variations and couldn't get it 100% working. Customer had 6WA cluster stock, installed the F8x virginized cluster. I recommend going a different route if you want full functionality.

4 years too late but if it helps i finally got the f80 cluster working on my 340.

I've been looking endlessly for someone to make the shift lights work as well as the gears to show with no faults but I finally managed to get mine up and working and couldn't be more pleased. Hopefully this helps someone else as its clearly not a common retrofit hence not much information available online!

So, turns out whoever coded it previously for me didn't know what they were doing... ANYWAY long story short found a guy in the forums, dropped him a message on Whatsapp and turns out he can do it remotely! I wanted to meet up with him in person as i wasn't too keen on remotely so I took a risk and went all the way to London and he managed to sort it all within half an hour!


That's his contact details if anyone is in the same position as me.

Overall happy with the outcome

You got gear display to work without cluster adapter? Drive, reverse, neutral, park

Install cluster with adapter then code. All function working
