Changing the lights behind the cluster
Is it possible to change the lights behind the cluster on the ML. I want to change the to white ones. I think it would look very nice. I wonder how the UV leds would look on the white cluster. any ideas ?

I wanted to get the bulbes replaced because some were dimer then others. they said they replaced every bulb and there were 300 i think. eather i got a bs story or its sad. I havent tuched my ml in 4 months now because every time i drive it. i'm going 2 places . 1 the dealer 2 waiting to go to the dealer.

The good thing is if you DIY, you don't necessarily have to change all...what I did is that the area that had dimmed out...I went ahead and replaced 4 of them in that area at a cost of about $28.
I don't remember, but somewhere on benzworld, I even found the exact layout of the bulbs - which ones were for illumination, which ones for other functions like traction control, idiot lamps etc.
With that diagram in hand, I islolated the 4 bulbs in my area that were for illumination and replaced them...
Its a bit of a hassle to remove the cluster, but if you can do it, it can save you big bucks...there are instructions on this site and benzworld on how to remove the cluster...
