P3cars VIDI Vent Gauge Pre-installed B8.5 or B8

P3 VIDI OBDII multigauge (white display, red bars)

*SOLD*

As new, includes all original packaging/box/manuals.

Note: they retail for $579 for the preinstalled B8 vent, and not available pre-installed for B8.5 vent since you can't purchase vent alone without buying entire mmi panel.

Unfortunately I am unable to run this gauge simultaneously with an OBDII splitter and a wireless Rosstech Hexnet or Valentine 1 Savvy, so my loss your gain.

Preinstalled in B8.5 vent

Complete package

Are the vents in a B8 and B8.5 the same? So if I remove the whole vent with a P3 from a B8 S4, can I just place it right in to a B8.5 S4? Thanks!

You theoretically could fit a B8 vent into a B8.5 dash but won't be able to illuminate the led in the knob.

The B8.5 vent has a wire harness built into the vent (first photo) which plugs into a socket in the dash for illuminating the led in the knob.

The B8 vent only has a socket on the vent which a wire harness from the dash plugs into.

Also the knob on the B8.5 has chrome on the top and bottom whereas the B8 is black so it will not match the passenger side vent.
