They sell white guage faces for w202 on many websites, search for them on the web. I know for a fact that some website like Signatureseries or something like that makes white faces for the 202.:cool:

What's the milage on that AMG cluster? I may be interested in it for my C43. Looks to be exactly the same. This may even be the one I placed an ebay bid on. Let me know if you don't want it.

Thanks,

There are two main types of clusters. The old style with the 2 knobs to reset the trip counter and the new style with the buttons on the edges of the bezel. The two are not swapable.

As far as mileage that will be set by the dealer or anyone with the correct equipment

I'm not sure but I thought 1996 and on was the updaed cluster and 1995 and earlier the older one. I have a 1995 so mine is the Older one and not compatable unless nokia has found a way cool way to retrofit. That could be possible for sure! ;)

Rocket: yeah i think youre right with the 1996 being the updated style. So then to the original poster the cluter would work.

Rocket: You can pull off the faces of these gauges. There just stickers of some type of material. As long as the spacing is the same (ie if yours goes up to 160 the one you are swaping for should go up to 160 as well)

What about the needles? Will they work if you replace the white needles with the orange stock ones?
