Default Can you get a RS4/Euro Cluster with WHITE needles that reads in MPH? <more>

I have seen a RS4 Cluster that reads in KPH with White needles, I have seen a RS4 Cluster that reads in MPH with RED needles, but have never seen a Euro Cluster that reads in MPH with WHITE needles. Any help?

Default Basically looking for this but WHITE needles. Can you swap needles from S4 to RS4 Cluster?

Default I'm pretty sure you can swap needles. Dig up a copy of the OCT Boost gauge instructions.

If I recall correctly, the needles get removed in the process.

Stratmosphere is the US dist. for OCT, so see if you can download the instructions from them

Default you want a UK RS4 cluster

I've seen RS4 clusters with both white and red needles, but I dont know if the white needle ones was modified or not. Either way, I dont think that swapping needles would be too hard (considering you are already swapping out clusters).

You may want to find an Audi forum in the UK to see if certain years, or packages got different needles.

If you dont mind, please email me if you successfully import and install an RS4 cluster. I'd like to know how hard it is to get one to the states.

Default There's a RS4 gauge cluster installed in a the "Superior S4" arcticle in EC mag

a couple months back. It looked great. It had MPH and white needles and went to 180mph.
I still have the issue.
