Hey, fellas. New to the forum. I have a question: my dad has a sweet 1984 500SEL, but it appears to be the 'Euro' model, as all temp. gauges are in Celsius (it still has miles for the speedometer, however). Where would be a few good places to find stuff for it? I've already looked at performanceproducts.com, I was wondering if there were any other cool stores for classics?

Thanks!

Most new MBs (including the W126) shipped to the US have coolant temp gauges in Celsius. On some the climate control temp wheel is also in C. This doesn't mean the car is a Euro model.

Mine came with a F no, not the grade F

In the W140, you can switch the reading between C and F with a button.
