I replaced the gauge cluster in one of my cars due to this. Cost me basically nothing beside a trip to the junkyard. I wonder how these new giant LCD panels are like to replace as an owner.
pretty sure the materials costs are dirt cheap, as we see how cheap displays are these days. The cost is going to be how much the service center is going to upcharge you.
Yeah I know my post is about 3 weeks old, just skimming through my semi-recent posts.
Anyways, they probably make that stuff ridiculously difficult to replace, especially since it also displays the odometer reading. Its probably all tied together and legally needs to be reprogrammed by the manufacturer, so as to verify nobody has tampered with the mileage.

It should be very easy to replace it (but i have no expirience specifically with cars, so idk if they make it harder than it should be)

And it’s probably tied to the VIN number as well.
