Silver or White guages

I'm looking to get silver or white guage faces for my 2000 e-class. I looked into getting the AMG guages but you have to buy the enitre cluster and it costs 1200.00. Has anyone ever done this mod? I know E-Klas did an AMG guage upgrade,

indeed whitey! I want that too!

problem I heard is that if the change of the dials are not done properly with the proper tools, the needle will be shaking at high speed, which is pretty irritating..

can't seem to find 'em here..Had a friend who has full white dials on his lancer 4 years ago, and I've been wanting them ever since!

If you can find a used AMG cluster from a CLK or an E-Class, you can swap just the AMG speedo face. You have to pull the needle off and then peal the face off to swap them.

The chrome rings are extra...

I thought you would notice the white, Whitey...

I got the white needles form a C-Class Sport cluster.

Here is a cluster with silver face gauges.

Thanks for the heads up Mark..noticed that there was something suspicious about their website!

Well, I've ordered a set of carlsson stuffs from the UK and hoping that it will come through soon....its at www.mercedesperformance.co.uk. They were pretty quick in responding, but its been almost 2 weeks since I've ordered, and they've already deducted the money from my account...

The worries of buying stuffs from the net!

However, i did have pretty good service at www.umnitza.com, bought a set of Devil Eyes for my friends 7 series..excellent service..wish they all could be like that

Nah, the white face or AMG one looks way better (however, I don't like that "Premium Unleaded Only" written all over th left guage). Those white needles do look nice...in fact, the entire gauge setup of your's with the chrome rings, face etc looks great E....wished I had the guts to take mine apart to experiment with the lighting.......

Geez, there's so been many dodgey internet vendors reported lately, I think someone should start an "MBWorld Approved Internet vendors" or something

In 1999 they got rid of the "Premium Unleaded Only" text and I guess I could have swapped that face too. It looked so blank without anything there.
