Bought in junkyard instrument panel cluster with central color display from 200S 2.4L
Result at night:

Speedometer Trip computer Odometer Tachometer Automotive lighting



Important points:
  • The odometer value on your IPC will not be transferred to the new IPC;
  • The value of the oil change will not be transferred either. In my IPC, 25% turned into 0%. So don't forget to take a photo;
  • IPC settings are not transferred, you will need to do them again;
  • Trip A and Trip B - similarly.


Replacement process:
1. Turn off the car, open the driver's door and wait until the IPC goes out. In the process, it is better not to touch the pedals.
Remove cap from left side on dashboard panel. Unscrew 2 screws on the bottom.

2. Snap off the lower cap under the dashboard panel near the driver's seat. Remove 2 screws - one on the left, one on the right.

3. Move the trim over the steering column, unscrew the 2 screws.

4. Remove bezel from receiver (pull it straight ahead, not up, you can do it without blades), disconnect the cable connector from bazel.
5. Remove bezel from dashboard panel (I have blue bezel, because S trim, for other trim levels, Limited/C - black, or C - brown). You need to remove it from right to left, it is better not to use the shoulder blades, you will break off the white clips.
This is exactly what happened to me, then I just pressed the white latch with finger from behind and it clicked off.

6. Unscrew the 4 screws - 2 above and 2 below. Unclip the cable connector at the back. Be careful not to scratch the IPC.

7. Set everything back.
8. Via AlfaOBD change IPC type and make PROXI alignment.

Looks really good, i wanted to do this months ago, however I am not because of the odometer mileage not being able to change. I still would like to know my milage and until AlfaOBD allows the 2015 200s to change mileage, ill be waiting to do this upgrade.

I don't think the public will ever be allowed to tamper the displayed electronic mileage due to odometer fraud laws.
An FCA electronic repair depot could change the odometer reading. There would be need for proof. Possibly a notarized digital photo of your mileage & VIN plate with a date & time stamp?

If you look online, there are videos of people with Ram pickups changing their odometers using AlfaOBD and the change odometer option is present for other cars on AlfaOBD, such as the Dodge Dart.

I also emailed [email protected] almost a year ago asking if the option will ever be available for the 200s, here is the reply i received:

"
Hello,
Sorry the odometer correction for the 200 is not yet available. I'm working
on it but can't make any promise at the moment.

Regards,

I think there is a chance still, I just hope the option comes soon!

Here's a couple videos I were referring to:

Few people in Ukraine look at the odometer when buying a car. They check the mileage with scanners in the engine blocks, transmission, etc.
In my case, the mileage on IPC has increased +8416 km (5229 miles), but it doesn't bother me. I can change it at the key service for ~$20. :)
I know in US other laws, but even the law will not save you from dishonest people.
