    I needed one as well - Spoke to Don. He told me to check the thermostat cover to see if it has a nipple on it or not. Apparently they used 120 & 130 thermostats then. Issue is that the 120 is no longer available and if you have a 120 there's a "conversion" to use a 130 - luckily I had 130's - nipple = 130

    I too have a 2004 250xs and had 120 degree thermostats. I put 130's in with new gaskets. No issues.
