Changing parts over from a euro car won't help you, the dial with speed on it is different in the fact that the markers don't meet the outside edge of the face giving space for the leds to light up to show speed setting.

I have a set of acc clocks but soon discovered that it's just not worth trying.

If you approach anyone asking for a new cluster price ask how much for two because I want to do this retrofit too.

That's unfortunate.

I believe circa £800 for clocks was mentioned before.

Anybody got a part number for S8 RHD ACC clocks?

Audi insist on quoting for a straight replacement for my non ACC clocks

Yeah I heard about the same, would have to try various dealers to get a bit off if we were going to buy together

Some of them don't seem to mind others are just too Anal

Be interesting to see what Marcins contact in Germany could get them for, but he's awol again.

95% sure it's 4E0 920 981 FX for the 5.2 S8 with ACC, but please double check.

If most of you are looking, you've probably seen this KPH S8 cluster with ACC on ebay.
