2002 ML500
instrument cluster lights

Vehicle is a 2002 ML500. I just noticed the speedometer is dim at night, so I imagine a light bulb is out. I'll pull the instrument cluster but would like to replace all the bulbs at once. I'd like to have them on hand before I start the job. How many bulbs is that?

two T5's, two T10's for the instrument illumination. Get white LED's, and change the colours from the dull off white/orange to white. They dont affect the orange needles much, they go slightly dimmer

One of my bulb went lately and considering this project.

Can you post a pic or two with the LED installed?

Thank you in advance!
