I think you're confusing 6WA with 6WB. Every speedo cluster I found on LKQ for ~150 are 6WA clusters.

There IS a listing for $900 on eBay though.

HUD specific one.

You are correct, most of them are the old school 6WA, but there was a few 6WB in there a while ago. Guess im not the first to think of them, lol!

Does anyone do any remote coding need my 6WB coded this Friday or Saturday? Or if anyone local in the Atlanta area?

Cheapest one I was able to find was $700 ($650 for virgin 6WB and $50 for coding). It has small crack on the the plastic frame in the bottom right corner which is almost not visible. If you don't know that the crack is there you wouldn't notice it. Other than that it works great. I am missing turn signals in HUD which I was told 6WB doesn't support.

Where you get it from? $700 + coding is quite good. Sell your old one and it might cost a bit less.

I could sell it but from what I understand I still may need it if the dealer needs to update I-step software for some reason.

Just found this out yesterday when I finally got around to recoding everything that I lost with the 6WA>6WB swap. Damn it I sorely miss the turn signals in HUD. Loving the navigation in the cluster vs HUD, but won't get over the turn signal indicators :-(

yes, it is unfortunate, but 6WB looks much better, gives modern look to the car

I have a 6WA with HUD and there are no turn signals in the HUD.
Do you mean turn-by-turn directions from navigation?

You have to do a bunch of coding to enable them. They aren't on by default.
