Instrument cluster replacement
Hi all! My X is 2001 made X5 4.4i. Due to some dead pixels in dash board display, I am thinking of replacing the whole instrument cluster. I searched in eBay and found 2 items, one is claimed to be for E39/E38 and E53 (item number: 62116914885), I searched in realoem.com with the part number and it showed the part is only for e39 ( http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...410&rd=1&rd=1). The other one is clamed originally for E53 4.8is ( http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...492&rd=1&rd=1).
Just some stupid questuions: 1) Is the one claimed to be originally for 4.8is compatable with my 2001 made 4.4i? and how about the one for E39? 2) Are they plug and play which means no need any modification or recode? 3) My car is RHD car, is there any difference between RHD instrument cluster and LHD instrument cluster? 4) What else should I be noticed for instrument cluster replacement?
Really need you experts' help! Thanks for any inputs!
