So I wont boar anyone with the details of a full DIY for removing the cluster (these pics are from M5) as I assume everyone knows but its 2 T10 torx screws and cluster pulls out and 3 connections in the back to unplug. VERY SIMPLE.
NOTE: I didnt take before and after photos as I didnt think about it actually but they will also send you, if you ask, when your cluster is completed before and after pics.
Unplug Cluster
And ship to the fellows below...they have agreed to offer a deal of $75 (return shipping NOT included) to fix either the MID or VDO. I had my x5 cluster repaired as have folks on M5Board, of which I am also a member. I am unsure how long this offer will last and I have NO involvement in this company I am simply trying to pay it forward from what I have benefitted from on this board.
Please reach out/call either Jacob or Steve BEFORE sending your clusters out so they can make sure they have the parts for your unit. I know they have ability to repair E39, E53 and E38 others may be available upon request.
