GP3 Digital Cluster on R56

Hello guys.
Probably thats not possible but i have to ask again because all this is too new and i think it will be a question for many of you..
Would it be possible to mount-play the digital cluster of GP3 on an R56?
Interface might be different(or not)...I know that some custom job should be done in order to fit there but if..Just IF we manage to mount this cluster there..Can it run proper?
I want/have to put some gauges and i would prefer have some indications of oil temp/pressure/boost etc etc + my RPM and any other extra info in 1 screen for a clean look
Is any of you believe that this might be possible.?

Couple of months ago i asked THE GUY!! He said no..But it was too early so i really hope that he or someone else find out the way...
So... @Lou@Prototype-R do you think/believe that this might be possible?Or i just should erase it from my mind??

Thank you guys!
All of you..
And a big thanks to Lou that he helps me so much in everything.This guy is the brain of MINIS.

i've seen some posts on instagram about people doing this. looks both pricey and difficult. may want to explore AIM. they do something similar aftermarket

@varma1986 If you have read better you would realize we talking on R56 section and put the cluster on R series not F series..!
@BRG56 I dont want AIM becaus i want that "OEM" look.! :/

i can understand that. i'll be curious to see if this becomes more easily accomplished as they years go on. i love the mini but always found their gauges to be a bit out of my style. i too would prefer their newer set up in their older body styles
