as for looks

I think the analog clock looks a hell of allot better then the digital version that looks like it could double for a clock you would find in those 25 cent gumball machines that contain "stuff". You know the type in grocery stores where you put in a quarter and a large plastic ball thing comes out with a "prize" in it.

if you dont have a clock, you have a big void, with the choice between the analog clock and the digital, i think the analog is a nice upgrade.

My digital is non-op and I'd love to install an analog but the price is the killer. Not Roger's fault on the price but I can't justify it for a clock.

Fabio,
If you buy 10 I will let you have them for $361 each.
I hate to tell you this but they will not fit your cars.

Shoot man. I can make 'em fit. My dad has a killer tool set.

Seriously, I have a digi clock that is rectangular and looks to be of a similar size to what is pictured. Why wouldn't it fit? This is a serious question.

Ryan,

Mine's white also... And it was that way when I bought it.



Must be a 90's thing. Does your's glow in the dark?

Mine's pink, used to be red and will soon be white if it continues to fade.

Can the face be removed to re-paint the hands RED? That way I can save $371.00.

Roger, sorry to hijack this thread.

Roger,

Can you get me the analog clock wiring harness connector so I can install it the way Michael did on his link?

I currently have a busted digital clock, but have a replacement coming for $30 from a fellow RL member. However, I like the analog look.

I also ordered a round Jager clock from Nicole but it is on backorder.

BTW, the fog light assembly came in and was perfect. Don't forget to bill me for the difference.

Roger, if I offer to buy one, will you get me the prices on that stuff I asked about a few weeks ago?

I upgraded to an analog clock awhile back. Cost me $300 from some guy on Ebay. One of the best things I've done to my car. At speed, a simple glance down and it reads. The digital "thing" was a bad dream. Tossed it. I agree with Roger: when they're gone, they're gone forever. If I could afford it, I would buy another one and stash it someplace. I do that with P car parts. Someday you'll have the money and wish you had the clock. Besides why keep the money? You don't know who has touched that dirty money. At least you know who has touched the clock.

Wow

I picked one up just for the shipping a while back - still in it's box ready to be installed if I could only find it in the ever growing "Parts for a rainy day" section of the shed.

Michael, thanks for the link, I've been looking for this wiring procedure when I get around to this upgrade. I was lucky and even got the snap in harness to the analog w/ my clock, so I’ll be splicing away soon.

Glad to help LeRox.

Roger, if you think my write-up may help, feel free to print of the procedure and include it with the new clocks.

BTW Roger, for a Porsche part with unobtainium, that is a very good price.

Cheers,
Michael
