MK3 Clocks, F**KING UGLY!
« on: 02 September 2009, 03:17 »
Ok I wish to replace the clocks on my mk3 but one thing I need to know. How costly is this going to be and can it be done by someone with limited car knowledge.

Taking out the dials as a unit is fairly simple, just the headlight switch block being the difficult bit.

There's another thread about alternative clocks.

seat ibiza cupra (upto 99 i think?) are direct fitment with silver dials and orange back lighting (as I've fitted them before but fitted blue led's) but you can buy new dial faces, chrome rings or ddi spec dials  :cool:
