Title. I've done my share of searching and I can't really find much, if anything, on the subject.

Logic would dictate that the instrument clusters are very much likely shared between non Nismo models and Nismo models, though there is a different part number between the two for 2024 MY, one ending in A and one ending in B.

Brainstorming from a design point of view, I would imagine the only difference would be the software the cluster comes pre loaded with that likely includes the Nismo theme, though something tells me you won't be able to just plug your car into consult and "enable" a Nismo theme on a performance cluster.

Anyone have any ideas?

I would also assume it would just be software but if there are different part numbers for the dash maybe there is an extra wire used in the harness for drive modes or something - since the Nismo has 3 modes. Sorry I don't have an answer for ya but I would be interested in how that stuff is all handled too.

I was thinking the same thing. Wonder if it's a plug and play option or if aftermarket can come up with a solution. Shouldn't be too difficult ?

Hell, I'd just like to get the update that allows 2024 models to display exterior temperature in the Sport gauge configuration. Surely, that's simply a software update.

I want this too. I'm guessing we'll never see an update. Too expensive.
