This is an upgrade for me for 3 reasons (at least):

1. It's JDM and goes with my theme of other JDM parts
2. In an effort to go completely emblemless this helps me get closer to that goal
3. LEDs will be swapped to blue/white and will match either side for a cleaner more consisent look across the center display area

The JDM clock is an upgrade for me because.

1. Easier to read
2. Easier to read
3. Easier to read.

The analog clock is so annoying, id rather pull my phone out of my pocket and read the time there then figure out the analog clock.

I prefer the Analog, much classier and adds a central focal point to the interior.

But I do like the 05/06 more. I wonder if they are the same size as the 03/04, prollynot. \\

Nice I have some of these on order, just waiting for them to come in. I was also able to order in the bezel piece so that you wont have to modify anything to fit the clock in.

Only problem is I ordered in small qty so I can see if it will work before I order in bulk. I'll post up once I get everything in.

Isn't it just one big wiring harness? I took out the whole display unit before and it is one big wiring harness.

Cool what are you making it out of? nice ingenuity

If you use a clear piece of acrylic or something you can just tape off and paint the portion you need blacked out.

Or you can use a vinyl/tinting.

NICE!... the JDM bezel i think you still have to modify a little you may want to clear that up with "CandlestickPark"

that's why i am just making my own cause i don't want to mess up my JDM bezel and be wrong i miss seeing my compass and airbag lights so i am going to add them to my custom bezel because the JDM bezel don't show these
