anglophone1 Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 (edited) Hi all Anyone done this? There is a Patrick Motorsports kit available - USD 60 and then USD100 shipping! And anyway I want an orange light - not a red one..... Stuttgart Classica were selling kit too- no longer. Currently thinking of mounting a Hillman imp amber indicator light onto a Rothsport clock delete plug - but they are nearly USD 50 for a piece of plastic. Open to other cool ideas- I don’t really use the clock, I have a race battery so always use disconnect switch- so clock is always wrong! Anyone? Thanks Clive Edited May 10, 2020 by anglophone1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northy Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 I have a cold air vent in mine. It’s got a Ford swivelling vent in it; perfect fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anglophone1 Posted May 10, 2020 Author Share Posted May 10, 2020 (edited) Cool idea 😀 is there a duct to it as well- if so from where? Edited May 10, 2020 by anglophone1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johndglynn Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 This was an old mod back in the day - never thought it looked all that good... I have a genuine RSR clock delete blank in mine. That looks pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phill Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 I bought this from someone on here ages ago thinking I might delete the clock but never got around to it and now I'm sure I won't do it. I paid a tenner I think. Yours for a tenner posted if you think you want to go that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SP72 Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 Have to admit, I don’t understand clock deletes. You lose the Classic 5 dial symmetry, one of the most recognisable features on these cars. And replace it with Fiesta part or a 50p bung? 🤭 If ventilation is poor, maybe fit one of the Achtung Kraft under dash vent re-directors and keep the clock in place. Hollywood Speedo do some funky stuff (at great cost, no doubt) but would keep the symmetry intact - and my OCD satisfied https://www.nhspeedometer.com/911 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

85targa Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 I’d say that guy in wales come come up with some cool ideas to replace it. clock when you want it, Rev limiter, oil light he could probably build multifunctions into it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Busybee Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 As sat nav would be pretty cool in place of the clock. Something switchable. Like on the 981 boxsters/caymans. Nice kit that 👌 That bloke down in South Wales would sell quite a few I’d imagine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
