Just got a 300SD with a problem with dash
My girlfriend's beater toyota was stolen so I convinced here to get a 1983 300SD we found here.. anyway the car is okay except for that fact that the speedometer does not work nor does the dash light up.
What is it going to take to fix this???

How do you pull the cluster out? Do I need a special tool?

take a coathanger..........cut it in half........on one end of each bend a 1/2" "L" slide that between the cluster and dash..rotate for the L to catch the back of the cluster and pull....its interfearance fit.
