Instrument Cluster Problem

So I got in my 2001 CLK55 tonight (only 34K miles since it was bought new) and noticed that 1/2 of my instrument cluster lights were out-----everything to the left of the center of the speedo was lit and everything to the right of the middle of the speedo to the middle of the tach was dark.........WTF???

Does this mean that I need to purchase a whole new AMG instrument cluster (est. $870 from the MBZ dealer) ???


Mayday!.............. Anyone know if I just need a simple bulb replacement???
