[QUOTE="Yeow, post: 742719, member: 23861"] Not sure about the cluster socket but I read that when you swapped the cluster, you'll see a tamper dot in the cluster display. The vehicle VIN is stored in the cluster as well as in 2 other components. If all 3 doesn't match up, the tamper dot will appear. It doesn't adversely affect the car in any way, but might be an issue when you want to sell it later. I'm not sure if the VIN can be recoded into a used cluster. Other sifus may be able to offer more insights. [/QUOTE]
