Few Questions on the 2010 model-year cluster display.
Hey guys. I recently picked up a 2010 C63. Loving it so far but I have a few questions about the LED display screen in the gauge cluster.
-I'm 6'3 so in my seating position it's hard for me to see the speedometer after ~50mph since it gets blocked by the cluster trim/surround. So is there anyway to see your cursing speed in a larger font? I know in my previous 2007 E55 AMG you could push a button on the wheel and the analog speed would show up in big letters. I can't seem to do this on my car.
Could you please post pics for reference on how to do this, if possible?
BTW is it possible to adjust the screen brightness?
TIA- Kyle.

To display the Digital Speedometer:
Press the < or > buttons on the steering wheel until the Trip menu is displayed.
Press the up or down arrow to select the digital speedometer. The speed will be displayed in the center of the driver information display.
The screen brightness is adjusted by turning the dimmer pin in front of and below the fuel level gauge closer to the steering wheel.

I tried adjusting the screen brightness but the knob only seems to adjust background lighting and not the central display. Not sure if there is any other way to adjust the screen brightness.

The brightness of the screen in the center console can be adjusted in the System/Settings/Display/Brightness section of that screen.
