(T) Abarth dashboard in other Stilo model?

Has anyone tried to install-connect an Abarth dashboard to any other Stilo model?

It would be an interesting approach.

What just the clocks or the whole dash?

I would imagine he means the white dial cluster.

Hasn't this come up before? I will go a-searching......

+ the trip computer as well.

Now that would be something i'd like to try!!!!

I'm sure it will fit but half of the idiot lights would'nt work as the abarth has more functions than lesser models.

A part from the cuise control, what other functions has the Abarth got?????

It has that active colour matrix display which does'nt appear on any other models, plus ESP/ASR warning lights which only the Abarth, 1.8 16v & JTD have. Most of the warning lights on the abarth are on that display where as on other models they have singular lights beneath the water temp/fuel gauges.

The Matrix display has been dropped from later models.

And would the new dash fit into the CAN system? Seems like too much hassle to me, better off buying an Abarth to begin with.

I'll second that

I would buy one if i could afford it!!!!!! Us non-abarth owners have to meke do with what we have and if we can improve what there is...... we do it!!!!!!

The only real difference is the Abarth has white dials but I believe Lockwood now do a white dial kit for the Stilo. I think they usually retail between £20-30.

You can connect the Abarth dash to a regular Stilo model.
The goodies include:
- TFT matrix display with arrow navigation (requires CN+)
- cool white dials

Downside:
- Error messages for parking sensors and loose connection (oil pressure etc.)

I have fitted the Abarth dash and haven't regretted it yet.

Best,
Lars.

So how did you to it????? Was it difficult at all???? And what do you mean you get error messages from the parking sensors, are the sensors connected to the trip computer in any way????
