1985 380sl Instrument Cluster removal

[bcouch]

Just read a cluster removal for a newer year than mine (1985 380sl) and I am wondering if you can remove mine by just pushing from the back. Or is there a totaly different process?

All the 107s have a press-fit cluster. The only thing that varies is how you get the steering wheel off and what you have to unplug/disconnect from the back.

Thanks for clearing that up for me...................

the older w107 had one piece clusters, the newer had two piece ( the little rail at the bottom where the turn signas go is separate) , but all push out, return may require some repair or fabricating of a rubber seal as often times they tear or become non functional, be careful of your oil pressure line and of your dash.
