Ah, well found. I had tried to find it for you, but no luck. Others may be interested, but I'd be curious to see if there are any issues with the cluster.

Well, I have no choice as I can't find a AMG cluster and my cluster has 260 KMPH and i'm driving at speeds like 310 when I cross Germany sometimes.....
i'll see but they look like knowing what they are doing. i'll go for the 320 version as 400 is a bit pretentious

310 kph is 192 miles an hour ... You seriously aren't doing that on public roads are you ?

I wish I could open mine up that way. America lacks the roads for it, sadly.

My gauge also shows 260...but since I can change between mph and kph...it means that, if I could, it could display up to 260 mph.

Does yours switch between mph and kph?

Nope, that's what I mean, mine will change from Km/h to mph next to the 0.

Have you tried changing it...it may be in the menu? After all...my car came from another EU country not the UK and is right hand drive. Any the wiser?

So...you were wrong about the idiot remark.

Hey now, be nice. It's a kindness if anyone finds it for you, it's certainly not an entitlement.

Getting argumentative will not get you what you are looking for. If you don't cool it, no one will help you at all and you will be on your own from here on out. The polite way to phrase your response is "Hey, I can't find a dealer with one priced as you found, all I can find is on that cost 1,753,98 €. Where did you find yours?"

See? Easy. I know where he looked, and also why you couldn't find it. If you apologize, he might share that information with you.

because from the beginning I knew the price was around 1800 euros
do you seriously think anyone would have a company upgrading a gauge for 750 if a new one from MB AMG cost the same price ?
I could even find a used AMG CL65 gauge from ebay, have been searching weeks and weeks
I got what I've been looking for since the beginning of this threat, by myself and sharing with others who might been searching

so comments like"tachopix is NOT recommendable. very arogant...."
and
"mir first choise: the OEM cluster of the CL 65.
in germany the price is the same for the tachopix speed upgrade or the complete CL 65 cluster"
where not really useful as unfounded

It sounds like you work for the company

By the way posting a hyper car at doing 330kmh in Germany doesn't mean you have ever hit 310kmh in your cl600. 192mph would be so dangerous in a cl600 its not even funny
