NOTE: This is the later style with the arrow for the turn signal lights, but it 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, scratch and gouge-free plastic face and no face delamination. Good light tunnels with minor discoloration of the bulb surrounds. Way above-average, considering most you will see. If your W123 dash lights are really dim, this part may need to be replaced. Your plastic housing and dash light tunnels could be melted.
