C55 AMG Instrument Cluster

I just saw the C55 instrument cluster. Could I change out my C32 instrument cluster with the C55. Much cleaner look. I will ask my MB dealer later this week.

Wouldn't you have a problem because of the V8 vs V6 for the tachometer??? This was a problem pre high-tech electronic cars.

The dealer is probably right but not tellign you the whole story...

The dealer may be right as the dash display contains the odometer display. The odometer reading is likely stored in multiple locations and one of the might be in the dash display unit itself.

Nevertheless, you can still switch dashes. The dealer just needs to perform the proper service procedures, so that you don't get a bad odometer situation. There must be a specific procedure to switch dashes because they can break down.

The instrument cluster has to be programmed with the correct mileage first. It is doable but I think we'll have to wait for Steve to get some new clusters in.
