Does anyone know of where I can get a replacement instrument cluster glass for my 93 SL600? Or does anyone have a dead cluster that wants to sell?
The previous owner cracked mine and I would like to replace.

I think this would be the same as yours. ( please correct me if I am wrong) Its from a s class so should be cheaper than if advertised as an SL part

it is $400 new for just the glass. look on ebay for a used one.

If you can't find a good used one, take your cluster to a shop that makes things out of Lexan. See if they can make you a new face using Lexan. I'll bet they can.

if only the plastic is broken, you can buy for that part, also it's the same part as W140, cost abut $100.00

Also when inside is dirty, do not use water or any detergent, because the inside clear plastic is covered by anti bacteria. Jut wipe it off by soft dry cloth

Do you have a part #? I need one as well.

I just checked the MB Electronic Parts Catalog (EPC-net Online) for my SL and a separate glass is not listed. If it does exist as a separate part, I'd recommend going to the dealer to see if they can special order it for you.

Cluster Replaced! Some notes

I just purchased an excellent used cluster lens from a member on this forum. It was in excellent shape. I have a couple of notes for anyone doing this in future. I believe the best way to remove the cluster is by removing the bottom knee bolster trim (the trim under the cluster). Then you simply (and carefully) push the cluster out from the back with your hands. I was talking to the parts guy at the local MB dealer when I was buying some replacement cluster bulbs and he told me even the MB service techs have been known to crack older clusters by using the mercedes hook tool. When replacing the cluster you are replacing the entire lens and black shroud which makes up the front of the cluster (not just the front clear lexan). You will need to pop the clips holding the two pieces together and you will need to remove 2 small torx bit brass screws at the top to get the two pieces apart. Thanks to all who posted!
