Retrofit DIS

Post by hho87 »

Hello all!

I was wondering if anyone here has retrofitted a midline or highline DIS from a lowline and know of any companies that do it? I have found Hazzy Dayz Ltd @ http://vwcruise.com/ but it seems a bit pricey on what they qouted me. Has anyone else got any experience in this and how much it cost?

Thanks for your help!

Hazzy Dayz Ltd are asking stupid prices :shock: for simple retrofit items?

You will have to obtain a brand new uncoded (Virgin State) Midline or Highline DIS , as I have been informed that the DIS has to be coded online through the VW system so it can work with your car, so they can transfer the information from your old dash to the new dash.
VW dealer or specialist who can do online coding example Keys, ECU's etc can do this for you, I think VW charges between 1-2 labour for DIS coding.

I hope this helps 8)

Not everyone is happy to attack their brand new Polo with a screwdriver!

Hazzy Dayz are flexible on price. I have supplied my own parts which they have fitted for me, saving me quite a bit.
