Please read total of twelve cylinders for the hydraulic cylinder p/n's.

Please verify with your parts guy and VIN the following.

4x 129 800 2172
2x 129 800 2072
1x 129 800 1772 (left)
1x 124 800 0272 (right)
2x 129 800 0272
2x 129 800 1672

Note: why would you buy new instead of a rebuild by Dennis Fricken at $30/each plus ship?

Please try an 'Advanced Search' of this forum as both of these topics have been discussed several times in the past.

Please check with MBCluster.com -Mercedes Instrument Cluster Repair Homepage

For correct p/n's you can always use your VIN at your local Mercedes Dealership parts counter or try EPC online.

These are electrically incompatible. Later clusters communicate over the CAN data bus while earlier ones do not.
