Hey guys,
Has anyone found a suitable console clock replacement that works in our cars? I know that AA had one coming but, it's not available yet and as much as I would like an original, the thought of paying that kind of money appeals to me only as a last resort.
Thanks!
Mike

In the past I have found Audi clock cores that duplicate the 914 clock rear. I have one now but I had to pay $100 for it. Sending it out to NHS or PAS will cost $100 + for the swap out. Then add a new trim ring, plastic lens and and paint arms. You have to be careful about buying Audi clock because there is two versions. Has to be exact match on back.

classicautoclock@gmail.com might do the conversion to a full quartz clock movement . He has done over 4000 conversion in the last 25 years. I would check with him and see if he can do 914 size console clock.

Handle classicautoclock on Instagram if you want to look at his work it is spot on.
