Default Dashboard lights...

MB 300e 1990

How do I replace the bulbs that illuminate the speedo, tach, etc?

you remove the instrument cluster with MB hooks then unscrew the speedo cable and disconnect a few things here and there and...voila!

Thanks for the quick response:

While your response is succinct, I am not familiar with most of the terms;

you remove the instrument cluster with MB hooks >> What are MB hooks? How does the instrument cluster come out? Is there a drawing of the procedure?

drawing? not quite...but a physical demonstration. http://www.mercedesshop.com/Wikka/W124InstCluster At the dealer, they're called pulling hooks-part number 140 589 02 33 00...really cheap and useful...or you can make the hangers.

Couldn't ask for anything more, except for someone doing it for me! Excellent documentation of the process.

Thanks.
