CLK230 W208
w208 clock hard to read

Hello, on the W208 there are three digital displays in the instrument cluster - one on the left, one in the centre and one on the right - clock. The clock is quite dark and hard to notice. I am not sure if it is the lcd display or a faulty globe. Perhaps someone knows?


Thanks John

Have used this company with cluster repair (bad pixels on clock and temp)...fast, great work, guaranteed.
I live in Massachusetts, so I did a drop off and done next day.

Also if you do a search (like you should be fore posting) you will see that this has been discussed many times and there a few DIYs out there.
