I know but I feel it gives it a very stylish and sophisticated look.

There is a TSB for/when: "CLOCK IS DIFFICULT TO VIEW AT NIGHT"

Adding a spacer between the front clock cover and rear housing will improve lighting by estimated 30-40% while not increasing any 'hot spots' on the clock face.

Yes, the TSB suggests replacing the clock with a modified version with larger hands. My dealer keeps replacing the bulbs. They might be insulted when i bring in the TSB next week, but it's getting old.

In regards to style, the analog clock is hot... Add's a great level of style and class to the dash area

Is there any mod to replace the analog clock with digital cuz it is the 1 thing that ruins the car for me and the 1 reason I'm on the fence now about purchasing a G.

I think that's a poor reason not to buy a G. It's a great car.
How can it bother you that much ? You must also have other reasons.

It honestly does bother me that much. I am not comfortable with having to read an analog clock while I am driving. I would rather look and see a digital screen with the exact time. No other reasons at all cuz I do love the car.

Well when I am 20 and buying the car with my own money I wanna make sure I get what I want. Guess I am getting the nav, thanks for settling that problem for me.
