you'll need some immo3 clocks and someone to code them in for you

Option 1: buy a replacement cluster and have it coded in.

Option 2: have your exisiting cluster repaired, you need a new LCD.. VDO make them I believe and there is a chap on ebay who can fit a new LCD for you, maybe send him a message?

http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/m.html?_odkw=&item=261105809531&pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&_osacat=0&hash=item3ccb1e787b&_ssn=allsortsuk2009&_trksid=p2046732.m570.l1313&_nkw=repair&_sacat=0&_from=R40

I've suggested the repair option because you mention you have an Anniversary so the cluster in those is worth having the LCD repaired because they are not your normal standard Golf cluster that is available cheaply.

If you just get a set of VDO immo3 clocks everything else can be swapped over to make them the same as Anni clocks (front with rings, foils needles)
