Make your Audi A5 B8 cockpit feel years newer.
Cái Nâng cấp Virtual Cockpit cho Audi A5 B8 replaces the dated mechanical-style driver display with a 12.3-inch digital cluster while keeping the original Audi instrument electronics at the heart of the vehicle-data system.
- Full-width digital cockpit transformation
- CarPlay & Android Auto navigation in the driver display
- Original mileage, fuel, RPM and warnings retained through the Audi PCB
- Steering-wheel and MMI control support retained
- No extra coding after PCB transfer and no factory main-wire cutting
Why the Audi A5 B8 Virtual Cockpit Retrofit changes the whole driving environment
The original A5 B8 cabin has aged well, but the instrument area is one of the parts you look at on every drive. Replacing that visual center with a digital cockpit makes the car feel newer without asking you to replace the dashboard or the vehicle you already like.
Speed, RPM, warnings and navigation move into a modern digital presentation directly in front of you.
The upgrade stays in the original instrument location, so the cabin becomes more current without looking like a universal screen add-on.
Phone-navigation display, switchable layouts and retained vehicle data change both the look and the way you use the cockpit.

These are real product and installed views from this Audi B8 cluster route. Each image shows a specific part of the upgrade you will actually use or install.

A cockpit transformation you can see immediately
The before-and-after view shows why the cluster changes the perceived age of the whole cabin rather than only replacing one gauge panel.
- Cleaner, wider driver information area
- Keeps the original dashboard structure familiar
- Strong visual upgrade for owners keeping the car long term

OEM-style placement in the original instrument position
The cluster sits where the original Audi gauges belong, keeping the driver view integrated with the B8 dashboard instead of adding a screen on top.
- Vehicle-specific dashboard fit
- Driver-focused viewing angle
- Factory-style cockpit proportions

Put phone navigation closer to your line of sight
Supported CarPlay and Android Auto navigation can display in the instrument area through the correct connection route, keeping route guidance directly in the driver display.
- Apple CarPlay navigation display
- Màn hình dẫn đường Android Auto
- Hỗ trợ kết nối có dây và không dây
The supported map route is CarPlay / Android Auto. The original Audi MMI factory-navigation map is not projected into this cluster.

12.3-inch display built around the B8 instrument area
This is the actual wide cluster body used for the Audi A5 B8/B8.5 route, giving the driver a larger digital focal point while preserving the surrounding dashboard layout.

Audi A5 B8 Virtual Cockpit Retrofit compatibility
This route is designed for supported Audi A5, S5 and RS5 B8/B8.5 vehicles from 2008–2016 that originally use a mechanical or semi-digital instrument cluster. iKAGOO can match the correct route from your actual vehicle details before shipment.
Audi A5 / S5 / RS5 B8 and B8.5, Type 8T / 8F, 2008–2016.
Coupe, Sportback and Cabriolet routes are supported when the original cluster and dashboard match the product route.
Petrol and diesel vehicles are supported, with manual and automatic transmission configurations included.
LHD and RHD vehicles can be matched. MPH and km/h switching is supported.
Designed for vehicles originally fitted with mechanical or semi-digital instruments and a functioning original instrument PCB.
This product is not for Audi A5 B9 / Type 8W or vehicles already equipped with a full digital Virtual Cockpit.
Modern digital display, original Audi vehicle data underneath
The key to this retrofit is the original Audi instrument PCB. It is transferred from the factory cluster into the new digital cluster, allowing the car's own instrument electronics to remain the source of the data you rely on every day.
- Mileage & speedOriginal instrument data continues through the retained Audi PCB.
- Fuel & RPMCore driving information remains tied to the original vehicle electronics.
- Cảnh báo & trạng tháiDoor status, warning indicators and available factory information remain part of the display.
- Điều khiển trên vô lăngSupported original steering-wheel controls continue after correct installation and setup.
- MMI knob controlSupported MMI control remains available for cluster interaction.
- OEM reverse cameraSupported factory reverse-camera display can continue after correct connection and configuration.
Why the original PCB transfer matters
The new LCD changes the way information is presented; it does not ask an unrelated replacement module to recreate the Audi's original instrument data from scratch.
Customer benefit: you gain the modern digital cockpit while the original Audi instrument electronics remain central to mileage, fuel, RPM, warnings and other available data.
A clear Audi B8 PCB-transfer retrofit path
This is a mature vehicle-specific installation route: remove the original cluster, transfer the original Audi PCB into the new assembly, connect the matched harness, then verify the display and retained functions. No additional coding is required after the PCB is transferred correctly.
Access the factory instrument assembly using the correct B8 trim-removal route.
Move the original instrument mainboard into the new digital cluster. No PCB soldering or jumper wires are required.
The supported route does not require cutting the original vehicle main wiring.
Confirm display, vehicle data, controls and the selected navigation path before final reassembly.




Four details that make the digital cluster better to live with
Beyond the initial visual change, these are the functions you continue to notice after the installation is finished.
Ba phong cách giao diện
Classic, Sport and Vogue layouts let you change the visual character of the cluster without changing the dashboard hardware.
Familiar driving information, cleaner presentation
The digital dial layout keeps speed and RPM easy to scan while giving the B8 cockpit a much newer visual language.
Vehicle data stays useful, not decorative
Supported warning information, door status and driving data remain visible so the cluster continues to work as a real instrument panel.
IPS screen designed for everyday viewing
The anti-glare display direction helps keep the 12.3-inch cluster comfortable to read across daily, night and longer-distance driving.

The value is the correct Audi retrofit route, not only the screen
Two clusters can look similar in a photo. The difference becomes important when the original Audi cluster is opened, the PCB is transferred and the vehicle needs the correct configuration and support path afterward.
Model, year, original cluster, steering position and relevant vehicle details can be checked before final preparation.
Support follows the actual Audi A5 route: original cluster removal and original PCB transfer, not generic plug-in instructions.
The cluster, harness and vehicle-specific connection route are prepared around the confirmed configuration.
Product-side help remains available for supported installation, controls, configuration and display questions after delivery.
Applicable Wi‑Fi updates can support UI, system-function and CAN adaptation changes when a compatible update is available.
Eligible manufacturing defects and hardware failures are covered under the applicable iKAGOO limited hardware warranty.

J’ai installé ce compteur sur mon A5 Cabriolet de 2011. Le guide vidéo fourni par le vendeur est très clair. Il suffit de démonter la garniture, dévisser l’ancien compteur et brancher le nouveau. Le rendu est magnifique, surtout la nuit. J’adore pouvoir afficher les infos de la musique et du téléphone directement sous mes yeux. Le service client a répondu rapidement à mes questions sur la livraison.

Nâng cấp đáng kinh ngạc cho chiếc 2012 B8 A5 của tôi! Kim đồng hồ analog nguyên bản khiến chiếc xe trông thật lỗi thời. Cụm đồng hồ kỹ thuật số này hoàn toàn thay đổi nội thất. Việc đồng bộ số km diễn ra suôn sẻ sau khi làm theo hướng dẫn được cung cấp. Bố cục thể thao RS5 với đồng hồ vòng tua ở giữa trông thật điên rồ. Thời gian phản hồi tức thì, không hề lag trên đồng hồ vòng tua.
