Hi, i currently have a 2017 A4 that i'd like to install the virtual cockpit to, is this simply a plug and play unit or is there more to it than that, like wiring, programming, additional modules etc.

It can be done but it's not cheap. Your best bet is to look at Audi/vag retrofitters. 

Thanks Steve

Did you get this done??

I also was thinking about this and got in touch with Audi-Retrofits. See their below response:

 

A brand new virtual cockpit is £2750 + VAT supplied and fitted. 

We don’t offer second hand clusters as the mileage cannot be adjusted to match the car. You are welcome to supply your own cluster if you would like us to fit however we take no responsibility with any faults on the Digital clusters.

 

Along with the virtual cockpit you will require the MIB2 upgrade.  

The upgraded Audi MIB2 unit with larger screen and fitting is £1500 + VAT.   

 

If you need the updated steering wheel buttons to control the VC, we can supply and fit them for £200 + VAT.
