Temp/Fuel/Oil guage cluster needed for W123

My oil gauge is leaking, so I need a replacement for a 1984 300DT. Any and all offers appreciated!

Thank you for the reply and offer. Seems the going price is in the $30 - $40 range plus shipping and handling, how does that sound? Need to make sure it doesn't leak. Thanks!

Ok, I think this is what you want. $40 shipped sounds great. I can put it in a small usps flat rate from 47401.
If you will pm me we can talk about it more.

FYI: depending on the age of the replacement, the low fuel light may behave differently. On the 84, the light comes on in position I - basically to test the bulb and show it was working, older versions didn't illuminate unless the tank was low. I'm not sure of the cutoff for the change.

You've also included a "T" in the designation. I think there's also a slight difference in response for the wagon tank (TD) and the sedan (D with turbo) since the wagon tank is flatter. I don't think the gauge is affected, but maybe a point to clarify from buyer/seller for whether it's a wagon or a sedan.

as far as I know this one is from a sedan. Can get more pics or search for numbers but it seems pretty scarce for numbering.

Have you seen the cluster in use? I am replacing an oil gauge that is leaking badly and I need to know that the one you are offering doesn't leak. Thanks!

I am pretty sure this is the cluster from my last 300d.
Would oil have been spilling out of the dashboard? I would have remembered that

The back of it looks like female pipe threads. Maybe some teflon tape or locktight in the threads?
Or is it leaking from somewhere else?

These are known to leak from the oil gauge itself, not from the female threaded connector. Mine is leaking from the gauge badly, thus the need for a replacement. Since it has been awhile since you had this cluster in a car, would you consider a return option if I install it in my car and it is found to leak oil? If you agree to this, please PM me with your mailing location and payment options. Thanks!
