For just the LCD? Any brains circuitry? I have heard of custom LCD's being built if a large enough order is put in. Similar problem with a lexus climate control LCD display... guy ordered a couple hundred and sold them for about $10-20 (if memory serves correctly, either way it was cheap).

Somebody could have some VERY nice markup when the comparable part is $300 wholesale.

The part alone retails for $510.00. If your mechanic can do it for
"several" hundred, that sounds like a real bargain. My cost is over
$300.00. I would love to know his source.

Subject: [MBZ] Outside temp gauge 1994 E500

The outside temp gauge in my 1994 E500 rarely works, and when it does,
it does so intermittently, or only shows partial numbers. My mechanic
assures me that the problem is not the sensor in the front bumper, but
the read-out gauge itself. Replacement cost including labor is estimated
at several hundred dollars.

This is not an essential item, and for several hundred dollars, I can
guess at the outside temperature (which in Los Angeles doesn't vary all
that much anyway), but if someone has some information on this, I would
appreciate hearing.

Many thanks,

Joseph
