2002 SL500, 216 CL500, all fully loaded
Just finnished the cluster for Raj 129.


While working on it the speedo needle got caught up, and bent a little. it does not look too bad,and now read 27MPH fast

The rev counter is now on the left, it looks better there, I have also altered the calibration of the economy guage, you will now get 53 MPG

The bulb failure that you sent it in for is fine.
Will send it back on Friday

PS, I have put some sticky tape over the cracks on the glass, does not show too much

Malcolm,
Im glad you done your best, i really appreciate it.
I would have thought that the shipping would have been the worst fear, but i forgot that the shakey hands and poor vision would have effected the cluster.....( i think the phrase as young as you feel doesnt quite cut it then lol )
i think we should reconsider the SL500 you have too, im sure i could provide it with a warm loving and danger free home....
Thanks malcolm, i really appreciate this you know i only let the best touch anything on the SL......

Regards,

Raj.

PS you will have a flurrly of people with cluster problems contacting you now, should bring you out of semi retirement i think, how about i arrange it for you and i get a 30% cut.....what do you say...

Malcolm,
Thanks for sorting out my cluster, even though the rev counter is on the left, the mpg is now at 53 and i cant go faster that 27mph, which is great as when a copper pulls me i will say i was under look its showing at 27mph...

Other than that the lights all work fine now and the parcel wasnt damaged in any way during transit (thank god) at £800 a pop its risky.....

Thanks again malcolm,

Raj
