What is wrong with my instrument cluster?

Seriously, it did a transformers on me!

I am having it programmed tomorrow and will also push the black plastic surrounding all the way in so you cannot see the clear glass lol.

I personally like the white faced cluster better... I know you get a few extra goodies with this one, but I like the way the white one lights up at night... Regardless, lookin good!

In your case? It would have looked better in Hot Pink!

But seriously... looks nice? I guess? Don't know what the other one looked like.

Yeah I had the white one, but it was getting boring lol. The black dials look much more newer and bold which stands out. Plus I like the 8k rpms and all the other features which are a lot.

Looks Awesome! You still have the white one or did you sell it? Is it true that our clusters are interchangeable?

I am digging the new format as well, and are you going to change that white face surrounding and make another "E63" look-alike...

I have the white one, but will keep it in case I ever need it in the future. I had to take the electronics in the cls63 cluster and swap it into the e55 cluster housing and that is why I have the two tone look.

Haha, I actually chose to use the white face against the black dials for the contrast, but if wanted I can simply switch the face to all black!
