    So you know...this is an 84 318i cluster. 84-85 318i/325e clusters use a black plastic coded peg in back of the tach instead of an electronic chip. SI board is different as well. It won't be accurate if you're trying to use it on a 325i.

      I dont think the guy who sold me the 2.7i even knew to be honest, this was going into my 325e , so it wont be accurate?

        So i cant use my early 'is' chip on this?
        Edit: no i can't so i'll have to get a 325i one, are the coding plugs interchangeable between i/is models?

          I or is doesn't matter. They are the same.
