I have been struggling with this myelf recently. You can order strips from MB for like 6 or 7 bucks. However, the only ones they have available are the older style like came on my '97.

I have been trying to locate the newer style strips for some time so that I can update my cluster. I don't understand why MB does not sell them.

I have seen a post by someone before who did update their strips, but he did not respond to my PM asking for his source. Hopefully, someone will know the answer.

Thanks for getting back, there is a member from UK by the name KLP 92 and i read one of his threads and he upgraded his S Class with those strips, so i guess we can only get them from UK. The dealers in the US only have the right side not the left, i've tried a few dealerships in NYC.
