In terms of the eprom swap option. There are 3 different chips on the cluster pcb that will need to be swapped. The immo and millage information is stored over there different chips. Changing one without the others will not work. Simply reading and then Re-writing the small eprom alone will transfer the millage only, not the immo data.

I have a bench cluster wiring harness that I connect to a 12v power supply. I have numerous spare clusters. I have VCDS. I have an MCUmall chip reader. I have tried transferring data from the small eprom only. I have tried physically swapping the small eprom only. If you do this, only the millage will transfer.

I need to fix my center display and am in a similar situation to yourself. I haven't decided which way to go yet.

Leave well alone and live with it.

Swap all 3 chips again to another cluster.

Send it and the replacement to the company who say they can clone it.

The latter seems to be the obvious one but if you're cluster gets lost in the post you will be in real trouble.
