I've done the "hot-swap" but not with progmann, just by swapping the clusters with idle engine ...no success of course... I'll give it a try some time with Carsoft, but I dont think that it will work.

Congratulation Marco!
One question, do you have to put back the old cluster when you have Progman update next time?
I still prefer fuel consumption to oil gauge, but I really like the big transmission gear indicator.

maybe...or maybe my dealer is. Nick and I where both told that this procedure required special eqiupment and of course a dealer that will accept to do it. My dealer didn't even want to negotiate it...I have found someone in Germany, but I feel going back to the dealer and put some pressure on them.
