You are aware that it is pretty simple & fast to remove the instrument cluster?

according to the diagrams i have, 12v on pins 9 (Red/Blue), 4 (Black/Red) and 14 (Red), ground on 18 (Brown)... Though do this at your own risk. Better yet, plug it into a car (any a4 of same age).... Dont want to be blamed for any feck ups, though i believe these colours/pins are right.:sorry:
 
may be you can show me the diagram or send the link to it?
