Question Center Dash Vent Connector W124 - look at the pics

I took out my center dash vent, because the light bulb is burnt and the center wheel wasn't working. When I went to install it, I couldn't seem to remember how it connects to the back connector. I'm not sure it was even connected

Here is the center vent:


Here is where it goes:


This is the back of the vent which has a connector:


This is the connector in the center dash where "I think" it's supposed to connect:


Any idea guys


BTW is the Center Vent Thumbwheel Light part number 000 825 00 94?

You are correct. just make sure the gears are meshed correctly so that it will open and close, then once you get it back in you can adjust from there.

Just found a link:

1. Is MB bulb # 000 825 00 99 the same as Sylvania #2721 ?

I just finished going through my parts bin and found this screw that I think might be the one I'm looking for. The one for the center vent. Can anyone confirm this:

HEX Head

Also I found a light bulb that might be for the vent:

It says 12v 0.4w on the bulb. Is this the kind of bulb that should be used for the vent?


I just found this list from Sylvania and found everything but the one bulb I need:

right, that's the hex key piece that lets the wheel move the slats. the one that I could not get the angle of it and the piece in back of the vent housing that it attaches to (which is on a little swivel so it can go up and down) to line up right. that looks like the bulb too.
