So far, I've just used a regular eprom programmer. I've just changed the VIN and the 996 -> 986 designator. That works.. but I have not tried dumping a C2 bin file to it.

This is the first I've heard that the dot matrix displays have two proms! Oh boy!!!

So, I took the car to a shop with a PIWIS and tired to convert it.. and the PIWIS would not see it. This was before I was able to change the VIN and 996 designator. I thought for sure the PIWIS would do the trick.. I recoded my DME to a 996, and the cluster showed up, but when we drilled into it, it was all blank. Couldn't tell it to be a C2...

I'm kind of at a loss with this conversion.
