    I did a small mod recently and thought I'd share.
    Didn't care for how stock clock looked so I found this clock in a 2000-something Lincoln Continental during a visit to a local salvage yard. It's a pretty tight fit, so I didn't even use any screws. Simple mod but it looks pretty cool.

    Just a matter of what you are used to I think. I find that I can glance at an analog gauge and know exactly what it is telling me much quicker than I can "read" a digital one.

    Wow, that looks pretty awesome. Well I guess I'm not the first one lol. I like how we both got clock face that matches our gauge color.

    Nice mods! I gotta do something about my clock, the stock clock (or lack thereof) makes me crazy...
