Default Suggestions for repair services for an LCD clock in a 1987 S4

Hello,

Rather than fixing the LCD component for my clock, would anyone know of any companies that would restore it? I know they sell kits to change the LCD screen yourself, but the clock is subject to breaking because of its age. I don’t want to go the analog route ($500+ for a new one?), plus I want to keep the car as original as possible.

Also, any suggestions on what to use for a faded rear spoiler? I have see posts on here for Forever Black, but I was wondering if anyone had luck with other products?

Thanks in advance,
Mark

$100 on eBay or see if 928 Int'l has one. It's the used analog clocks that cost a fortune, not the digital ones.

I replaced the digital one in my 84 Euro S with an aftermarket analog one (creative fabrication required) as I much prefer the look of that.

Hi Michael,

Yes, I was looking for companies which would swap out the old LCD screen for a new one.
