Does This Look Like An M3 Cluster? It's NOT I Made IT!

- In this video I will show you how I converted my stock E90 gauge cluster to look exactly like an E90 BMW M3 gauge cluster. I even add the variable temperature based redline indicator!
You can buy the gauge faces here (affiliate):
ebay.to/2HIWMwG
We do some custom coding to make this all work.
To get the full effect you would need to follow the instructions in this video:

I calibrated my gauges with a piece of software called Perfekt Toolbox.
Your laptop would need to be setup with the INPA software suite to do this. Link:

"My car is way faster than a e90 m3" I love that lollll 😂😂😂
WAY faster 😂
stock m3 is slow as shit plus no turbos and even you go with up max what you get below 800 HP when 335i you can build up to 1000!
Any 335i that's beyond 414hp should deserve a m logo 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂 classic
Lets be real here the M3 V8 is more enjoyable then turbo engines. I had plenty of Bmw turbo sixes and my 545i manual is so much more fun because of pure NA engine sound and throttle feel wich turbo engines lack totally. Speed is not all there are plenty of fast cars out there.
Great video , I changed my 335i dials for the 200, but got the 8k limit, I’ve coded my mph so they match , great mod
Genius. Love it. Going to try on my FBO E60.
Awesome DIY! Keep up the great DIY's.
Woow this is awesome!!.….. Thanks so much for taking the time to explain all of that. 👍🏽
BRAHHHHHHHH YOUR VIDEOS ARE THE BEST I WAS LOOKING FOR A VIDEO SHOWING HOW TO CODE M3 CLUSTER AND LOL HERE YOU ARE CODING OEM TO M3 AMAZING SAVED ME FROM BUYING A CLUSTER
1000 LIKES LIKE ALWAYS TO YOU
Great video. How do you not have more subscribers. I love your videos.
I love your videos.great upgrade.
Best video on RUclips about this topic
Greetings from Germany
Thanks! 😃
7:10 you can code the car with ncsexpert and ncsdummy and select the M3 instrumentcluster option to be able to use the M3 instrumentcluster in a regular 3 series. The ‘engine temperature meter’ will stop at your standard rpm limit once fully warmed up. That’s why you could’ve retrofitted the M3 cluster with your custom backplate with lighting up M3 logo and could’ve avoided the whole hassle. Still great video though!
but an M3 cluster isnt really cheaper
You never fail to amaze me!
Awesome job man like usual! 👍👍👍
Awesome DIY, man!
Test function will consider middle points to get correct arrow position in the future release of Perfekt Toolbox. Also I'll keep "raw" test function.
Thank you for the great video!
Any way to support the e46 kombi so as to adjust the speed and other values like temp?
Смотрел видео, и даже заскринил сабы где он тебя упоминает, чтоб тебе скинуть, а ты вон и сам здесь))
Good job.
The main problem is appearing small air bubbles on red tape in time, when inside of the car becomes very hot in sunny weathers. So, rather i prefer to paint that than taping. Or you must use heat resistant tape.
Thank you for these videos, I'm new to bmw (recently purchased an '06 e90 problem child) and several of your videos have been extremely helpful so far.
I was wondering if you had the missing link for the inpa software suite that your video description mentions? I would like to get started on diagnostics, coding and programming, (starting with battery registration) eventually getting into more advanced programming.
Nice job
Very interesting 👍
Looks nice!
Awesome, in-depth content. I've been trying to do the same for my channel... think I might have to do this on one of my BMWs!
Thanks! I started following your channel not too long ago, great content!
Haha, so this is where you hang out heh =) So now i have something to look forward to on your chanel aswell. =)
Lol I love watching other BMW channels!
Great content and very helpful stuff. Subscribed! Could you please share the link to heads up display you are using? Thanks
what a beast. you got my sub
Hello! Awesome video! Could you help me because i am having issues with the temperature gauge where OEM there are with lines. They are not moving after I opened the cluster. When i test the gauge everything seems to be working fine.
Great video!
Hey, would you happen to know why the test-drive function doesn't make the needles display the speed correctly in the speedometer section? When I try entering speeds to test, they're waaaay off (even below 100kmhr).
Great job Bimmer god!
I just did that retrofit too but the gauge moves too quickly. Even before the car is remotely warm it's already down at 7k rpm.
Any ideas?
Yes but not really!! Very cool video!!
What spraypaint did you use to make the rims on your cluster bright ? I am using gray adhesive which is darker - it does not look as bright as yours.
Thanks.
Nice work. Fix the cracked windshield though......
Thanks for the video
hello friend, great video, I followed your steps and the last thing I need is to code I have the revolutions of 8000 and speed 330km and you can explain how only km is encoded thanks friend
You have very good and informative diy's and clearly pronounced english for us non english people. I love to watch your videos even though I have a 535i F10. Greetings from Finland. I wish someone could make as good diy's for F10 N55 cars like you do for e9x n54 cars.
Man I feel so lucky because I have a 2008 335i sedan, jet black, except mines a manual so it's so nice to have a man with a near identical car.
Hi!
Thx for great video! I would like to ask you . I want swap my original gauge (Vmax 260km/h without rev adjustable scale & cruise marker; 7500 rev max).
I found out one peace of used gauge from 335i. But they end at 280kmh and rev max is at 8.000 rev.
-> Q: Im wondering if it is possible to change speed range? Put a new gauge face with 260kmh and set it up from 280 -> to the 260? Also set the rev.max from 8000 to 7500?
Thanks a lot for your answer!
Have you been a able to do the gauge sweep at start option and when you calibrate your gauges, are you using impa to do that because I know the needles are not going to be in the right place when you put them back in.
Do yo have an updated link I can use or name of the vender of the gauge faces?
In the video you suggest to get the 325i gauge needles as well?
What did you add on the needles to make it red?
Hi have you got a fresh link for the gauges? Can't seem to find the page
hello, May I ask what setting you use in prefect tool box?
hello friend, is it possible to use like PERFECT TOOL BOX things to program the F3X generation cluster speed motor act from original 0-260 to 0-330? because I want change the F30 335i cluster background panel to M3 background panel, but don't know what program is suit for F3X cluster, I make some research about the "perfect tool box" seems only support E6X & E9X generation.
** Loved the Video! I need a lil help: took apart my 335i Cluster to swap a bad LCD. Put it back together, but now everything works except my Tach 😢. Needle snapped back in fine (I think) is there something I missed? TIA
hi i did on my e60 but i did 8k rpm and 330 kph and 200mph but the speed when i set 100 kph this show 80 help
19:28 you do what you want to your car brother. Also, I have stuttering issues on cold start. Its smooth, hiccups, then once its done its warmup cycle its buttery smooth. Sometimes i hear my wastegates and on accel I get the hesitation but sometimes i don't hear the wastegates and the accel is smooth as butter. Everything is done, all oil gaskets, turbos, injectors, sparks, coils, hpfp, vanos, boost solenoids, silicone lines, clutch, you name it. Im attributing it to a failing crankshaft position sensor since im at 136k kms The tune is on the stock map 0 MHD for now until i figure it out. I also thought about upgrading my low pressure fuel sensor (with the new designed line) and the rail pressure sensor alongside the crankshaft sensor just to throw it all in.
Let me know what you think brother. Low pressure fuel system/pump/regulator has also never been touched but here in canada I only use 91 petrol.
You've recently changed the injectors? Are they the latest index 12? It sounds like leaking injectors from what you are describing.
@@VehicularDIY previous owner installed 3 new index 12s in bank 2 on August 2017. Last year April 2018 Installed 3 in bank 1, injector #2 sparkplug was wet so I bought a remanufactured index 12 and they have been dry since my last spark plug change. Im going to put back my NGK plugs since they are still good, I only put OEM boschs back to diagnose previous issues. I will check to see if any are wet with fuel again soon. If all spark plugs are dry, have a ruled out that problem? Thank you in advance. I'm not sure how to check if I have the latest version of index 12 Injectors but I do know they are all 12s and coded properly. Thank you
Yeah I'd say let it sit overnight then pull the plugs to see if any fuel is on top of the piston or the plugs are wet. It takes outs of sitting for the injectors to leak enough fuel to foul things out.
Hi. I just swapped out bad lcd screen on e90 328i 2007 cluster. Put everthing back together, conected to car, and my BC button and menu scrolling not working now!. What could have gone wrong? Scanned and got this error: A3A9 steering column switch cluster signal 0x1 EE receiver instrument panel, transmitter footwell module. PLEASE help.
@Vehicular DIY, I'm in the houston area as well, any possibility I could pay you to accomplish this in my car? I'm sure I could pull it off, would just rather have someone with some experience break into my cluster lol.
hello first of all I love your videos I have a problem I have an e92 325i euro and I follow the video but the values of the red warning zone do not work for me my car just goes below 200rpm the red line
Hello, im doing a similar project, could u share the Perfekttoolbox coding values for speed, rpm and cruise line?
I would love to have your patience .
Amazing! 👍
was just looking into doing something like this myself. Can you post a link to the forum post you referred to? What exactly did you use for the needle tape?
Sure the link is here: www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?p=24663088
Film I used:

Does this work for the e60 model?
Hi. Did you hack on how to rescale cluster?
No clue if you'll even see my comment, I would just really like to know where I can get the red film type thing. Last time I sharpied my needles, it looked disgusting... lol
Did everything, added a stepmotor from an oem m3 cluster. Activated warning zone with the Mrperfekt tool. But nothing happens...
Good videos, I like this one more than the other cluster video you made a while back, I may actually attempt to do it, just checked on ebay and you can pick up a used spare cluster for less than $50, my only question is, do you think this might work for a 2011 E93 N55???
Thanks, yeah it's the same up to 2013. As long as it's from a US car it'll have the KOMBI high cluster with the cruise control marker.
@@VehicularDIY thank you I'll let you know how it turns out
R you have this cluster for sale??because you add the digital one??let me know and thanks
Hi is this still available? I click the link theres no longer available
good video.
I ordered my new faces from venoxy(google it) and they got me to an oil temp gauge with the stock 328 tach and speedo.
if anyone else is just trying to get an oil temp gauge instead of the worlds most useless MPG wagger.
no affiliation, just a decent price and good quality bit for something that's kind of difficult to find.
Where can I get perfekt toolbox program?
You are awesome!!!
Bmw Love www.drive2.ru/l/496203276497191008/
mine need change before 80 mph help
Do you still have the speedometer gauge face? You in HOUSTON right? I have a km and want to change to miles on a E70 2009 x5
Also how do I contact you? Have a transmission question
Thank you for existing
Where can I get perfekt toolbox program? thank you
fernando luis Gomez www.drive2.ru/l/496203276497191008/
Genius!!!!
man how can I pay if someone does this for me don’t have the time 😔
Couple questions: how much would you charge me to have my amber lights removed from the cluster & have the same lights as the M3 cluster? Also, did your 335i come with a backup camera?
Can you use perfect toolbox to calibrate a speedo that reads wrong due to different wheel size?
You could use it to adjust how the dial indicates but the vehicle may still count he mileage incorrectly.
@@VehicularDIY oh yeah I hadn't even thought about the odometer
@@VehicularDIY would the steps be the same as the one in the video?
Please make an update video about the lsd conversion. I've heard many people are happy with the lsd for a week and after that it breaks or doesn't lock enough so it still feels as an open diff but with like 5-10% lock.
I definitely will, so far it's been consistent. Unfortunately I haven't been able to really push it due to my sub frame being cracked. It's cracked right were the passenger side engine mount is. The more I drive on it the more I can hear my down pipe hitting the frame due to the flex in that area. Otherwise I would have already really pushed it. I bought the new sub frame and will be doing a DIY on it shortly then I can really push the car. So far I've mostly tested while rolling and it's been consistent, you hear the tires chirps a bit but the car feels stable and doesn't pull to the right at all now.
@@VehicularDIY Nice, looking forward to the update video, really considering to convert my diff too as these guys are from Serbia and i am travelling through there soon and they will do me a good deal to grab a converted diff from them.
How come your subframe is cracked, never heard of this issue on e9x, i've got an e46 and they are very common to crack on the rear diff mounts.
Yeah it's just the aluminum subframe itself not the chassis so easy fix. I have almost 192K miles and the car has been making big torque for a long time. So the constant pressure of the engine putting all it's weight on the right side of the subframe probably took it's toll. I bought a really clean replacement subframe from a low mileage 328i for $180. I specifically went for a 328i as it wouldn't have been put under too much pressure.
Valentin don't waste your money. It works only on gravel in my e46. Not worth the expense
@@luke45412 Too good to be true for about 400 pounds to have an lsd. e46 m3 lsd isn't too expensive to swap in but the diff ratio is too short for me as mine is supercharged and even with the current 3.38 is too short, ideally i want 3.15 ratio so an m3 diff isn't an option. e46 are fucked with no options for lsd..
I live in Houston and have a Question: I have e70 4.8i 2009 that was spec for Mexico so Km and liters on dash board (speedometer tach) - las 7of vin L097189. So I want to make it legal in US and to do so I need a miles gallons dash board (speedometer and tach). So I found an e70 in junkyard but it is 3.0 - last 7of con LY82294.
Is this a plug and play type thing or does it need to be reconfigure? If so what are the suggestions to do this in US?
You could possibly just change the faces.
Vehicular DIY will buy junk part 100ish and check
Vehicular DIY worked wonders and super simple. Took about 15mins total. Now I need to sell the instrument cluster w km only.
bro can u like perfect k softwhere link

335i its cheat code for as who don't have money to get M3 but we have money for 335i which way faster with slight upgrade on turbos and tuning of ecu. PLus m3 can't be up on stock internals when 335i can hold up 900hp!
can i use this with the mhd wifi adapter? or do i need a cable
You'd need a cable.
@@VehicularDIY I'm guessing I need the cable as well for disabling the e diff
Very nice but way too much work involved plus I love the mpg gage who don’t love the mpg gage???
Hi THANK YOU FOR ALL THE VIDS.Q:Can the Combi in a e90 330i 2005/09 be coded to activate the extra bc functions you got late 06 and up via NCS and how if possible?
Thanks for watching, can you confirm what features you are referring to? Digital speedometer etc?
Tx for the quick reply its the functions were you can change door lock settings,auto lock.daytime lights ext.These settings are not present in 05 early 06 e90s yet the hardware aka the cluster combi unit seems to be.
but why?
hi how are you?I want please the dimentions of the clusters to print .can you tell me ?or if you have the ready work,final work of any programme inkscape your clusters or other programme please send me to my email if is possible.thank you
Two types of mechanics: Regular and Engineering. Hands down you're an engineering mechanic.
Can you do one for me ill gladly pay?
i have a 09 base sedan 335i, let us know the price. ill gladly pay as well
Bro can you sell me your old one?
You want the parts to do the conversion? If so sure, I have an extra set of parts. The stepper motor, the ring and that white plastic piece etc. Shoot me a message if you want it.
Vehicular DIY link to the heads up display?
@@VehicularDIY you used m3 speedometer the stepper motor?
Omg... 🤦🏻♂️
NEVER use “Sharpie” Markers/Pens to coat a surface that illuminates to make it a different color.
The “Sharpie” ink will fade quickly and you’ll either have to re-do it every 2 weeks... or have this weird off tinted color shining through.
don't put M if your car not M
It's not an M3
I don't understand why people put so much effort into modifying a non m-car with m-car stuff that doesn't do anything performance wise. Just drive man!
Dude shut up and enjoy the video
@@Crazyalbokid1 I will pass. Never do this to my cars.
Why do you have an ///M logo, it’s not an M car. You don’t rate. Unsubscribed.
Put some rims on her, dun like original rims 2 much , terrible looking
Ya I'm actively looking for a set.
Go for wide as fit "style 128" originals.
ASE CERT TECH , This is foolishness, if u want and M3 then just buy one simple! what is the purpose of all of this!the calibration is way off and unrelaible , ull get alot of speeding tickets! Not to mention unreliable temps and guage readings! Just stick with what the manufacturer made!
