Does anyone know if the T6 instrument cluster glass in front of you can be changed? I’ve got a small crack in mine and I’m being told that you can’t get the glass separately although I think the glass can be removed, been looking to see if I can find someone that can replace it? Unless someone on here is got one?

Scratched Cluster Plastic
IMO the problem is it’s scratched through cleaning. If you don’t touch the lens it can’t get scratched.
Cheers Harvey,
I was thinking about buying a couple of “internally damaged units and doing some experiments. I believe I could replace the glass with a little bit of luck and some patience. That said -
I understand the real skill is the deconstruction and reconstruction of the dash without leaving any marks/ scratches etc.
Or do I bite the bullet and go to VW.
The van is mint apart from this issue, I guess it’s a first world problem but to put into context my last caddy had slight damage to one of the radio controls and I had that repaired. (I apologize )
If anyone has the skills ?
Many thanks Harvey for getting back

The glass (plastic) will be welded to the case. Almost certainly VERY difficult to remove without doing significant damage all round. Possibly the best option would be to find a cheap (?non functioning) cluster and using this to replace the outer plastic and lens as a complete unit. These normally just clip together and are relatively easy to put together.
