Does anyone know how to change the dash lights (ie the one behind the speedo) on a 2001 CLK? Is it a DIY job, or an expensive dealer job?

Only one has gone (so can still see speed/revs etc) but a bit annoying !

Hi pmac,

This particular forum is generally 'light' on technical bits. You might be better off trying a dedicated Mercedes forum like...

Let me know how you get on. I've got a 2001 CLK and don't want less than a full compliment of dash lights!

Cheers,

Andy

The dash head pulls out from the bottom, your local friendly Mercedes mechanic will have two special 'pullers' for doing this, and it's a quick and easy job.

On my E class, if you remove the underdash you can get your hands up behind the panel and pop it out. 5 min job and bulbs change straight over..

Be very carefull and don't pull it from the front cos you will crack the glass!
