That is an interesting solution, thanks for sharing!
Does this solution have functional shift lights like I have in my M3 gauge cluster?

He says you can option shift lights (optimized for 1/4 miles, whatever that means) and knock lights (I assume for knock detection on turbo builds). You can also customize the gauge face, which I think just means you can bring any gauge face you want and he will work with it.Originally Posted by cakM3

This solution probably works very similar to that Schmiedmann unit that is no longer available, so it's nice to have something like that again for those looking. I'm sure international shipping can be arranged for those interested, sellers like that tend to be quite flexible.

Charlie, thanks again for pulling this documentation together, as it inspired David and I to get the M3 clusters for our respective Sedan ZHPs! Can’t wait to get this wired up and see it in action!
The modules from Dmitri arrived today, and I followed your directions which are great, but have to ask; what is the white molex connector mid-way through the harness used for (pointing to it in the photo)? I’m not seeing a reference to it in the write up, and just wanted to make sure it’s not supposed to be used.
Also, FYI, Dmitri changed the wire colors a bit on us, haha. All good, will trace wires back and the orientation is the same from your photos, so won’t be a problem.

The white molex connector mid-way on the harness is not used so don't worry about it. It is just there to secure the connector on the harness while in shipment. At least that is what I found when I got mine because the end of my harness was connected to this connector when I took my harness out of the package Dimitri sent me.Charlie, thanks again for pulling this documentation together, as it inspired David and I to get the M3 clusters for our respective Sedan ZHPs!

I'm glad you're able to use my DIY to make the OEM M3 gauge cluster work in your respective ZHP's. Please post pics of your setup when complete. I am interested to know your thoughts in using this DIY to make your mod work

Okay great, that’s what I was assuming, but it seemed kind of odd that the extra molex connector was for keeping the harness tight. Thanks for confirming!
Will post pics of the install once complete.

It's been a few months . . . did you guys get your M3 gauge cluster installed? Waiting patiently for your picsOkay great, that’s what I was assuming, but it seemed kind of odd that the extra molex connector was for keeping the harness tight. Thanks for confirming!
