    also the milage on the clocks you fit from breakers will be your new milage as this can not be reset

    best to strip out c43 clocks and remove face of it and place in yours but be warned not an easy job

    Wait so c280 sports have white gauges? My 96 c280 sport just has black gauges. Wassup with that?

    I believe that MY 1997 and up Sports have the white gauges.
    1998 C43
    1994 C280 (Retired)

    w202 started in 1993 and finished in 2000 but they were face lifted in 1997 so that is why the w202 sports has white clocks

    the pre 1997 had a sport clock too but it just had a higher top speed and slight different surround in grey not black

    You could take the dials apart and transplant the clocks if you're really careful and have alot of patience.

    but keep the stock clocks as they are better left alone unless you get them from mb dealer and set the correct km

    I have purchased from whitegauges.net. The overlays line up pretty well, and look good. I had to use the 99-00 C230 overlays as there is no post update set for the C280. The only difference is the redline on the tach overlay, but I can live with that.
