• a profile matched to the shape of the driver's side cockpit,
• a gauge cluster opening frame with the appropriate depth,
• locations for factory clips and mounting screws.

This solution facilitates the installation and removal of the instrument cluster while minimizing the risk of looseness, rattles, or unwanted vibrations while driving. The original geometry of the component helps maintain factory ergonomics and gauge readability.

Performance characteristics and installation benefits

• reduction of light reflections and unwanted gaps around the cluster.

The used component allows for an economical replacement of a damaged or worn frame while maintaining the original manufacturing standard. Factory origin promotes trouble-free installation without the need for modifications.
