300,000 miles.....

I saw a few other people post this from time to time. It is finally my turn. Didn't get a chance to take a pic of the speedo but most of you know what it looks like with 300,000+ on it. Getting ready to put her away for the long hard PA winter.
Enjoy.

Congrats! In case you do not know, you are at this point entitled to the official Mercedes 250,000 kilometer badge. Call 1-800-FOR-MERC for your free mileage badge application. And! You are just 11,000 miles away from your 500,000 kilometer badge. (Order one, wait, and then order the other. They will not send both). They'll look great on that grill. Well done!

how do you guys keep all the dust particles and stuff out of the gauge cluster? mine has a lot of crap right behind the clear plastic front part,and its driving me crazy to look at it....i tried cleaning it up when i installed my white gauge faces,but i wasnt able to do much good because i had to reach through the holes in the rear of the cluster...i couldnt get directly to the front of the cluster...is there some trick to taking off the front part??
