The needle presumably is press fit to the shaft - but I quit pulling 'cause it felt like I was at the safe limit and the needle didn't pull off. So to swap use a non-W123 in a W123 will involve some effort. The left group is connected to the right group with soldered wires, so if a few solder connections make you nervous, then you are probably best off with the whole cluster. The speedometer separates easily, so if the replacement didn't have the one - or the right one - it wouldn't be difficult to use the rest. I haven't checked, but I suspect you could even put in a cluster with a tach - though the tach wouldn't work without other effort. -- Philip _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
