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.

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..

and you will get this!

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.

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.

nope, our clocks are diff. wiring. they only have four wires, but cutting the green wire still stops it dimming when your headlights come 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!
