hey guys jus wanted if any one could give me some information on some clusters i have for my slr5000.....

they both have the inbuilt tachometer and oil pressure ,volts etc.
but one thing that they both have is kms and miles in them which i havnt seen..
also one has the white needle and they other one is orange.

could any one tell me some information on them and if they are more rare compared to others...

thanks much appreciated

The white needle one with the MPH on the inside is early LH, the yellow needle one with the MPH on the inside i have never heard of and therefore I don't know what it's worth.

White MPH & KM/H one is relatively rare, and worth substancially less than a regular one, lol.

Could you post a photo of the yellow needle one with the MPH? I've never seen that and I can't think of when it would have been made... (FYI, Yellow needle is LX, white needle is LH)

Rarity and desirability are often confused thats why. A plus 4 LH is rarer than an A9X today but not as desirable.

^ As above.

I personally reckon the regular (late) LH SL/R Cluster looks the best because it doesn't fade (white in the first place) and it's just a little less cluttered than the early one with both scales. I'm led to believe that most people share the same view as me; I'm merely a statistic.

I still don't understand how you have a yellow needle cluster with both scales though... what car would it have been on? How many digits does it have on the odometer not counting the white hundred metre thing? Pic?

It does say orange needle not yellow and there not hard to paint. What colour are the symbols? Also the mile-kph converter stickers were applied universally, so not just old cars being updated, some old owners of new cars still wanted to see their mph.

I have the MPH/KPH cluster, don't have a problem reading speed because I use the tacho, lol.

I had the other type in my first car, LX, and I must say I prefer the LH cluster with both.
