I have active TPMS on my car. Simply changing the cluster will not get you the passive TPMS system.

by god, that is BEAUTIFUL!

can you tell me how hard it was to do, in terms of labor hours and such? does it require a pro bodyshop also? what was the parts list? just looking at your pictures have made me so sad, because i probably would never be able to have that

I'm so interested in this.

Having seen the W209 gauges, they look way hotter than what we have.

Bueller?

there's another thread on this.

simple answer:

2001-2002: steve and sunil haven't figured out the less painful way to do them
2003-up: it's simple. just need to change the gauge mount and plugs etc.

coupes: only 2005-up can do this. why? 2002-2004 has the 3-eye gauge dashboard.

Too bad the clk cluster won't work for coupe models below '05, what about any cluster at all? I don't like the stock 2003 c230k coupe cluster...

thanks

i replaced the old style cluster in my 04 C230 with one from an 06 C230, had to send it out and have the mileage set to zero, only thing that doesn't work is the steering wheel radio controls. was unable to program it with das, would give communication errors.
