So which do you like better...
Analogue or Digital Clocks on the 2nd Gen?
(or no clock)

Analogue.

My brothers car has one and it looks great, especially when the dash lights are on at night.

I've never seen a digital "in the flesh", but judging from the photo, analogue gets my vote.

What were the digitals on? Diamante/Sigma or some such?

They were also in the Verada Sports Wagon here as well

The digi ones look far too 80's.

My Verada Touring wagon has the digital clock which I was going to swap for the analogue one
but the plug is different where it plugs into:confused:

if you could change the colour of the digital clock that could be cool

Nice! Gotta find me a Verada Touring Wagon.

analoug for sure. the digital one looks crap IMO

yeah my dad had a TR SE it was a really nice car, had an analouge clock and a ring of light around the ignition so you can find the key hole at night. also it had when you pull on the door handle again a ring of light around the key hole on the door handle.

absolutely awsome.

Go the analogue, the digi one does look cheap and retro :cry:

But if you want to be exclusive, grab a digital one.
They're damn hard to find though, I got mine from a bloke dismantling his sigma in the UK.

The 2nd gen digital ones came on Sigma's and Diamante Espada's.

Damn i want a ring light around the door handle.
Uber cool :doubt:

My previous 86 Cressida (now my dad's) have the same things. To make the light around the key hole work on the Cressida you have to pull up the door handle.:) I'd imagine it's the same on the SE so I'll have a look see when my brother gets home.

HAHA I knew it looked familiar 11:04am lol

My fav clock is . . . . . an accurate one!
I don't mind the clock in the radio on the TS - spot on accuracy!

yaaay cressida key ring thing ftw!!!!!

and make a custom digital clock..thatd b mad as!!!!

Definately analogue! It makes your car far more classy what with map lights etc. The digital one makes me think of a movie where they went back to the future.. ...

go the anolouge i just installed one in my beast today, and it now has a touch of class lol, but anolouge looks the best :D

Analog all the way! i just picked mine up from a broken car. does anyone know which wires to connect them to (does the light on the clock come on with the headlights)

Yeah the clock illuminates when the parkers or headlights are switched on.
You should get an auto elec to do it for you if you're not too sure.
I know greg did his himself, send him a pm to username 2speedy.
He's heaps good at this stuff haha

@ GRDPuck

Certainly Analouge :)

Private dancer... A dancer for money...

To change the colour of the digi clock you will have to open up the unit, there will be a light and a coloured slide (in this case it will be yellow), remove the slide and replace it with white paper then cut the wires to the light. Solder the positive end to a 510ohm resistor then solder the resistor to an LED of the colour you like then the negative wire to the negative end of the LED.

When I get my car back (tomorrow I hope) I will try and get a picture for you guys.

thanks man

Damn i want a ring light around the door handle.

Yeah, the KS Xi's don't have that :(

Just went and checked and my brother's car doesn't have the little key hole light on the door handle. However, if you pull the door handle, the light around the ignition barrel lights up for about 10-15 seconds.

Hey, that's weird my TR SE has the key hole light. I am surprised that the Xi Rada's don't have one :eh:

Definately the analouge clock. No clock just looks tacky with the ribs on the plastic there, the digital one looks too 80's when digital was all the rage

None, car didn't have one lol. I just use my head unit clock.

I've got to CS figurines in that blank space.

Analogue is much better.I have one with plug if somebody wants to purchase.
