ML270 dashboard bulbs

[Paulx]

Hi. Does anyone know where I can get replacement bulbs for the dashboard illumination - apart from main dealers?

I need to replace a couple the small ones (that illuminate the main beam light etc) and one of the larger yellow ones that light up the speedo and rev counter.

You can get them from the dealer or a good parts supplier

You don't say what year your ML is.

For my 2005 SE the big ones are:

Pearl 284 Wedge Indicator Bulb 12V/2W
A001 544 55 94

Or on eBay bags of 10 for a fiver

Bit of a dilemma buying these, stripping the dash down and putting cheap ones in might be a bad move if they don't last long, so maybe the ones from MB although expensive (fiver each?) are a better buy?

My nearest MB dealership didn't stock them, so I haven't got around to replacing a central one that has blown on mine, wasn't noticed at the next MOT and I can still read the speedo and rev counter at night.
