Instrument Cluster -HELP
I want to change the instrument cluster on my 2001 clk320. Does anyone know where I can find one and if it is possible. I have looked everywhere online and cannot find them for my model. I would REALLY like a euro style- with a blue backlight or something similar but would be happy with white even. I just want something more modern because the original looks old... Also I am trying to majorly hook-up my car- I already bought a chrome dash kit to cover up the wood and I am going to pick out chrome rims this weekend.. I am thinking about the chrome taillight/headlight trims too... any other ideas.. there is really not too much available for benz's - every website you go to has everything under the sun for mitsubishi and toyotas but not Benz! Please Help.... thanks!

Try Ebay...you should be able to find lots of stuff on there. And as for your instrument cluster, I think that you can only buy the Euro cluster with the Kilometer Per Hour numbers but no speacial lighting. THere are a lot of people on here who have done custom jobs for the lighting on the instruments. But I don't think a kit is out there.

Ive enstalled the instrument clusters from euro in my car with no problems. You can switch the gauges and do whatever you want with the lighting, there just regular light bulbs behind there.
You can get a W202 cluster or amg c43 one and it will interchange on MY 98-99 cars only.
For 2000+ I think you will have to find something custom
What part of jersey are you from? Theres a few shops in north nj that specialize in MB stuff.

Read this thread and see if it helps. User 'The Jury' has just pulled his cluster and done some things to the back lighting. You might want to hit him up with questions. He's very knowledgable about the electronics stuff.
