The Audi A5 B8 Virtual Cockpit Retrofit replaces the dated mechanical-style driver display with a 12.3-inch digital cluster while keeping the original Audi instrument electronics at the heart of the vehicle-data system.
The original A5 B8 cabin has aged well, but the instrument area is one of the parts you look at on every drive. Replacing that visual center with a digital cockpit makes the car feel newer without asking you to replace the dashboard or the vehicle you already like.
Speed, RPM, warnings and navigation move into a modern digital presentation directly in front of you.
The upgrade stays in the original instrument location, so the cabin becomes more current without looking like a universal screen add-on.
Phone-navigation display, switchable layouts and retained vehicle data change both the look and the way you use the cockpit.
These are real product and installed views from this Audi B8 cluster route. Each image shows a specific part of the upgrade you will actually use or install.
The before-and-after view shows why the cluster changes the perceived age of the whole cabin rather than only replacing one gauge panel.
The cluster sits where the original Audi gauges belong, keeping the driver view integrated with the B8 dashboard instead of adding a screen on top.
Supported CarPlay and Android Auto navigation can display in the instrument area through the correct connection route, keeping route guidance directly in the driver display.
The supported map route is CarPlay / Android Auto. The original Audi MMI factory-navigation map is not projected into this cluster.
This is the actual wide cluster body used for the Audi A5 B8/B8.5 route, giving the driver a larger digital focal point while preserving the surrounding dashboard layout.
This route is designed for supported Audi A5, S5 and RS5 B8/B8.5 vehicles from 2008–2016 that originally use a mechanical or semi-digital instrument cluster. iKAGOO can match the correct route from your actual vehicle details before shipment.
Audi A5 / S5 / RS5 B8 and B8.5, Type 8T / 8F, 2008–2016.
Coupe, Sportback and Cabriolet routes are supported when the original cluster and dashboard match the product route.
Petrol and diesel vehicles are supported, with manual and automatic transmission configurations included.
LHD and RHD vehicles can be matched. MPH and km/h switching is supported.
Designed for vehicles originally fitted with mechanical or semi-digital instruments and a functioning original instrument PCB.
This product is not for Audi A5 B9 / Type 8W or vehicles already equipped with a full digital Virtual Cockpit.
The key to this retrofit is the original Audi instrument PCB. It is transferred from the factory cluster into the new digital cluster, allowing the car's own instrument electronics to remain the source of the data you rely on every day.
The new LCD changes the way information is presented; it does not ask an unrelated replacement module to recreate the Audi's original instrument data from scratch.
Customer benefit: you gain the modern digital cockpit while the original Audi instrument electronics remain central to mileage, fuel, RPM, warnings and other available data.
This is a mature vehicle-specific installation route: remove the original cluster, transfer the original Audi PCB into the new assembly, connect the matched harness, then verify the display and retained functions. No additional coding is required after the PCB is transferred correctly.
Access the factory instrument assembly using the correct B8 trim-removal route.
Move the original instrument mainboard into the new digital cluster. No PCB soldering or jumper wires are required.
The supported route does not require cutting the original vehicle main wiring.
Confirm display, vehicle data, controls and the selected navigation path before final reassembly.
Beyond the initial visual change, these are the functions you continue to notice after the installation is finished.
Classic, Sport and Vogue layouts let you change the visual character of the cluster without changing the dashboard hardware.
The digital dial layout keeps speed and RPM easy to scan while giving the B8 cockpit a much newer visual language.
Supported warning information, door status and driving data remain visible so the cluster continues to work as a real instrument panel.
The anti-glare display direction helps keep the 12.3-inch cluster comfortable to read across daily, night and longer-distance driving.
The hardware and vehicle route below support the cockpit experience described above.

Two clusters can look similar in a photo. The difference becomes important when the original Audi cluster is opened, the PCB is transferred and the vehicle needs the correct configuration and support path afterward.
Model, year, original cluster, steering position and relevant vehicle details can be checked before final preparation.
Support follows the actual Audi A5 route: original cluster removal and original PCB transfer, not generic plug-in instructions.
The cluster, harness and vehicle-specific connection route are prepared around the confirmed configuration.
Product-side help remains available for supported installation, controls, configuration and display questions after delivery.
Applicable Wi‑Fi updates can support UI, system-function and CAN adaptation changes when a compatible update is available.
Eligible manufacturing defects and hardware failures are covered under the applicable iKAGOO limited hardware warranty.
For a supported A5, S5 or RS5 with a healthy original instrument PCB, this retrofit offers a strong balance of everyday visual improvement, retained Audi data and a clearly defined installation route.
This is a high-impact upgrade because the instrument area is visible during every drive. It is especially compelling for owners who like the B8 platform and want the cabin to feel substantially newer without replacing the car.
Read the Audi A5 B8 Buying Guide →The original Audi PCB remains the vehicle-data source, so the modern display is built around familiar factory information rather than replacing the car's instrument logic with an unrelated data source.
See the Factory Function Retention Standard →The retrofit has a defined vehicle-specific sequence: cluster removal, PCB transfer, matched reconnection and verification. No extra coding, PCB soldering or factory main-wire cutting is required for the supported route.
View the Installation Guide →Yes. This product is focused on supported Audi A5, S5 and RS5 B8/B8.5, Type 8T / 8F, 2008–2016 vehicles. iKAGOO can confirm the correct version from your year, body style, original cluster and dashboard information.

Maxime Durand –
J’ai installé ce compteur sur mon A5 Cabriolet de 2011. Le guide vidéo fourni par le vendeur est très clair. Il suffit de démonter la garniture, dévisser l’ancien compteur et brancher le nouveau. Le rendu est magnifique, surtout la nuit. J’adore pouvoir afficher les infos de la musique et du téléphone directement sous mes yeux. Le service client a répondu rapidement à mes questions sur la livraison.
Brandon Miller –
Mind-blowing upgrade for my 2012 B8 A5! The stock analog needles made the car feel so dated. This digital cluster completely revamps the interior. Mileage synchronization went smoothly after following the provided instructions. The RS5 sport layout with the center tachometer looks absolutely insane. Response time is instant with zero lag on the RPM gauge.
