NOTE: This is the later style with the arrow for the turn signal lights but will fit all years. Now includes free video instructions on how to get the cluster out of the car. Super nice housing with a good clear plastic face and no scratches or face delamination. The BEST light tunnels Kent has seen in a long time. Way above-average considering most you will see. If your W123 dash lights are really dim it could be that this part will need to be replaced. Your plastic housing and tunnels for the dash lights could be melted.
