The housing, speedo head, Clock (analog and digital), Tach, foil, LEDS,
voltage stabilizer, etc., were are sold as separate pieces.  VW never
offered the cluster as an assembled unit, at least as shown/listed in the
parts fiche of the day, even less info in ETKA.  When replacing at the
dealer, they would put it together from the separate components.  A rather
expensive process.
