HELP! Guage Cluster Dilemma

So as most W210s(Es) and W208s(CLKs) have the guage cluster issue of the pixels, so does mine. After looking around for about 2 years for a decent used one I just got one off of a W208 (CLK) that fits and wires up to my W210 (E) except for one issue, the fuel indicator seems to be working in the opposite direction (when the tank is emptying, it indicates E-->F, not F-->E). Anyone have a fix for this that has done the same interchange of clusters between the two models? Such as cutting the wires and reversing them? Thanks!

maybe u can swap the wires on the sending unit. most fuel gages work off variable resistor(sending unit) voltage up or voltage down..?
