I don't remember what page of this thread I saw it on, but a person mentioned being interested in you guys making a Plug-n-Play conversion from 8" infotainment screen to the 12" screen. Just wanted to say I'm interested as well. :)

honestly I'd rather have the Bronco sport cluster. it even has the big bronco on the screen, because ford goofed and gave us the turd one.

I has a real tach and speedo.

I bet $20 the goat modes are correct as well.

The stock gauge package is way better than this!

Remember when this was supposed to be part of the Lux Pkg at first? 😤

Awesome kit fellas!
Yeah, that was a big loss with the Lux package. And seeing this, now I really know what I've been missing. I could have forgiven the partial digital display if they'd only made the tach look like this. The analog speedo could have been put in place of the digital one above, or swapped with the tach location if need be. You'd hope that when they took something away, they'd make the replacement good enough that you wouldn't miss what you didn't get, but that didn't happen.

How freaking cool. Once someone figures out how to scrub that Raptor image off and full manual compatibility is confirmed I'll be a buyer. You'd have to pay ME $2500 to look at that Raptor.
I feel like a future refresh of the Bronco is going to offer the full digital dash. That would probably be the upgrade to get for those willing to wait. Should be much more seamless. For me, losing two GOAT modes and adding one I don't use is a big bummer, as would be the Raptor graphics/startup. That and the price and cost of installation make this something that'll keep me an impressed spectator.

It comes down to how big a refresh it is, too big of a leap and it will be hard to retrofit.

True, and there is the risk that a fully-digital display may not come. But I've seen some intrepid people upgrade Sync 2 to Sync 3 in the Escape. There are even "kits" available. It's a bit more than this dash update, as it requires replacing the APIM, but it does show that mid-cycle upgrades can potentially be brought to older models.

I think the graphics will be changeable at some point. My 23 Challenger 1320 had startup screens specific to the model. Others existed for various trim levels.

On the stereo/extended gauge displays they even let the END USER choose the background graphics. You can see I was using the drag light tree option but another 7-8 existed.

With it being electronic, lots of options are possible. Depends how far Ford pushes it and/or allows the aftermarket industry to tweak it. Sounds like they need to poach a Dodge engineer, lol.

Love my Bronco but the bloody gauges leave sooooo much to be desired. I’d be okay with a mix of mechanical and electronic personally.

Interesting. How realistic is this to work/fit?

I'd be interested in this one over the Raptor one too.
