Dear all bro,I looking for someone or workshop in penang to fix my e39 instrument cluster missing pixel. Besides, would like to install speedometer ring at the same time. I think this topic been discussed many time but i'm not a DIY guy & need to get expert to fix it. It is better if the workshop sell ribbon cable & the clome speedometer ring as well so that i no need to buy from ebay.Appreciate all your fedback
 
I am planning to get mine fixed also. Going to DIY it as it should be that hard. Will let you know how it goes.
 
If you're buying the replacement ribbon cable, please dont buy the cheap ones from China.

Me and Zidee had a bad experience using the China ribbon cable. Its made from carbon-based paper like material.

Better off buying the one from Hungary, came with proper instructions also.

Agreed. China can clone anything with similar look but diff quality. Btw, do you have promising quality cable from hungary? website also no problem. I try to buy from net. How much it usually cost?
 
Yes, second bro haywire suggestion, the budapest one is good with proper instruction, look here : http://pixelfix.net/

Was expecting to see you at TT the other day but no show..

Cheers
