    Purchased a MID repair from VDO

    I bit the bullet and purchased a VDO, MID repair- as recommended quite some time ago. Will let you guys know how fast it arrives back and take photos of the finished product. I am stoked about getting my MID pixels back!

    $239 including return shipping. After the time and effort I put in on the cluster I decided to take the easier way out for the MID
