So, after 3 1/2 years of S2000 ownership, I now have a clock in the car:




The clock face was "borrowed" from a customer's promotional item. A 35mm (IIRC) hole was drilled into my new MY05 radio door, and the face pushed into the hole. The face had a rubber surround to ensure that it fits snugly, but this is not required, as it's already a battle to squeeze it into the hole.

I think that I've found a UK supplier ...... http://www.craftmaterialsupplies.co.uk/aca..._movements.html

And another: http://www.ordersonline.co.uk/budetime/aca...Movement_6.html

Wouldn't mind a matching (outside / intake) thermometer to go on the left.

I thought that it would be too busy in the middle under the S logo.

It was free Also, I've tried various Hellfrauds digital versions, and they all look tacky stuck on to the dash.
