[W126 Coupe] how to change 500 sec mercedes temp readinggaugefrom c to f

[andy]

  Since my outside temperature in in Celsius I went to the internet to get conversions, typed them out of the computer and then had that laminated and I keep it in the small "change" tray in front of the shifter.  When I need to know the temp. in Fahrenheit I just pick up the card.  One of these days I may memorize them.

  Robert,

  Just divide by 5, multiply by 9 and add 32.

  Why can not we just use one system.

  An easier way, and no 5 and 9's required, is to just double the Celsius number subtract 10% and add 32. Example: 20 Celsius, double it ='s 40 subtract 10% or 4 and get 36, add 32 and, if by magic, you get 68 F.
