The tabs on the Bronco sport IPC look different to me. Honestly, if you can find a Bronco IPC, they are very similar in price to the Bronco Sport IPC, just not as easy to find. The difference could be as simple as swapping out the lens piece.

While both modules could be physically and electrically the same, I would be surprised if both models contained the same firmware. If it is the same firmware and they just look at the configuration that we send down via Forscan, then it might work.

I have wondered if the 2025 Bronco and the Bronco Raptor IPCs are running the same firmware. It would be interesting to send down a Raptor as built configuration to the Bronco IPC and see what happens. I would also love to see the IPC from one of the Raptor modules that vendors are selling for installation in regular Broncos.

I'll see what the software strategy is on it so it can be compared to what you guys have on these, but that part does not concern me. If it's needed, you can flash the IPC firmware with FORScan. It'll take 6 hours to do, but it can be done.

No big deal to me.....just noticed a possible way to make this easier and cheaper for you guys to do so I thought I would throw it out there.

I actually ordered a Sport IPC by mistake off of eBay, but cancelled before it was sent, so I agree they do look really similar and I wondered the same thing.

Where would somebody find the firmware images?

They can be obtained with FDRS.

I've been following this thread since it started and this picture just made me notice something. I am in the process of trying to do this same upgrade to my girl's Bronco Sport and this cluster seems to be identical to the one I got on eBay off of a 2025 Bronco Sport for her car. Can you or anyone confirm that this is what it looks like? If so, you can get these things for dirt cheap. The part number is S1PT-10849-BG which is very close to the one @Ducati1098 listed in the OP. I wonder if this could be an alternative option to getting a brand new one through a dealer which seems to be difficult to do?

Does look very close, but I don’t think it’s the same. Not sure it would fit/mount correctly either.
