I just cut my wire. It works perfect. No more dimming. I am happy about this mod and it took about 2 min biggrin.gif



what wire did you cut? You got a pic?
there is only 4 wires. cut the green one. right next to it, it says ACC as well.

if you dont wanna cut it.. just pull it outta the harness

you know why they put sheep at the edge of a cliff.... that way they push back!(2:27:32 AM) edit: please f*cking work, f*ck, sh*t, piss(2:28:08 AM) edit: that did the trick
so just cut the green wire?? simple enough
Just a thought, why don't we all post the information of our car (year, model, etc.) and what kind of clock we have (white or green) to see if we can notice some kind of pattern to their distribution. It would be nice for people to be able to predict the version of clock they have before cracking it open, plus I'm just curious to see if there is a correllation.

Mine: "94 GT hatch USDM-California

Green clock, brown lens
yea..any1 know what kind of things to layer on top of the clock if its teal under the brown lens?

Pandelica 2.0 in progress.

from everythingcelica.com

most of us have the green clock, so only those will work with us. i would have never thought to use purple and blue to have a blue clock. guess ill have to try it out.

easiest.... take a blue permenant marker....
my input on the clocks would be to go with lighting gels they work so much better than anything else...its what they are made to do ... go to a local music store that sells stage lights and speakers and what not i asked my local shop for a piece of red gel and he gave it to me for free..
Old Thread but worth an Update.

The Blue in the photo is too white on my dash it is more the shade of the Reflection that the Pail Blue in this photo.

Cool clock man, thats the color i need for my clock.
How do I ask for that sample book? Do you think they could ship it to southamerica?
anyway, its midnight blue right? I will check if I can find it in ebay.
or if someone could send this color, I could pay the shipping or the postal stamps if this could be send as a letter.
You know how old this thread is right?

But kudos for using the search button.
yup, more than one year old but I can't loose anything trying smile.gif
Hey guys, just to update this.

I found a rosco distributor here in Peru. So i visit them and got a couple of sample books.

with 15 minutes of work i got this



it looks kind of blury but it looks really nice. I'm really happy with it, now my panel looks like this.



i just remove the brown filter from the mask and replace it with one blue filter the #85 deep blue fropm the supergel sample book!!!

Thanks for this post!!! it worked great and I also cut the green cable to avoid the clock dim while the headlights are on.

You don't have to cut anything to stop dimming. Open the clock and remove spring which makes electrical connection between PCB and green wire.
I just went to a rosco dealer in jacksonville. They didn't have the supergel sample books, but they had another kind of gel sample book from 2 different companies, I got one of each and went to work. I started out with a teal colored clock like many others, I used a #80 Primary Blue and a almost see through pinkish color. The pinkish color canceled out the teal somehow and made my clock whitish and the blue made the whitish color into blue with a blue background. I had a lot of trouble using hot glue and screwed up a lot of the gels, I ended up just using super glue and everything is working out and looks fantastic!

jaxstage.com is the site for the store I got the gels from. You can find a list of rosco dealers by going to rosco.com and clicking "where to buy."

Hope this helps some folks out, and thanks whoever suggested the gels!
