    As long as its the same series. I swapped mine for a Calais and it worked fine. You will get the srs warning light though.

    been covered multiple times on this forum

    - as long as its from a VY. From memory VY=grey plug VZ=blue plug (or vice versa). Clusters physically the same but the plugs arent
    - if its from an 8 into a 6 or vice versa need to have some settings changed via Tech 2 because the fuel guage will read upside down
    - Tech 2 is needed to adjust the speedo to cater for different diff ratio from 8 to 6 and sometimes from Calais to Exec etc (as they have different ratios)
    - 3 panel will work as well

    So yes, will work BUT you cant just change them over and hope for the best! It will work to some degee, just not perfectly.

    vy series 1 and vy series 2 are differant make sure u keep them from the same series thats what causes the fuel gauge to read backwards and the rest will need tech 2 to change the no of airbags and tacho if from v8 and diff ratio for speed
