Dash cluster

Is it possible to wire a 2011 g37 dash cluster into a 2006 g35 and it fitting seamlessly?

Just solder some new LEDs in if you want a custom look. Making 2011 Infiniti technology work on your old car is a nightmare and requires lots of custom work you can't perform, no offense.

Sure, but you'll need somebody to decode, decipher, translate and inject the CAN-BUS communication between your car and the new cluster. Then you'll need some custom-made cash parts to make it fit seamlessly. The cost of labor and parts for that should be roughly double a 2011 G37's fair market value, and should only take several months to get done.

You'll want to check out the lighting subforum - https://g35driver.com/forums/lighting-177/

Great info on recoloring the dash in there.

Check the forum posts about it, but if I Remember correctly, something has tint.
