Default Hate your 5th gen or earlier clock color?

I sure as hell do! As well as the rest of the dash lighting color... so I did a blue LED conversion on all the switches and will be adding simple reverse glow gauge faces... although the clock is still the same ugly teal-ish color.

I fould a simple solution... using a civic clock (I used a 92-95 clock). What makes the resulting color is simply the plastic "lens" in the clock, the displays inside all produce the same color (except the amber ones I believe). So I swapped the "tinted lens" from the civic clock into my accord clock, replacing the "blue lens". I now have a "white" clock, looks MUCH better with blue lighing on the dash! Its not a direct swap, but still very simple.

Heres the clock before installing it. I'll take some pictures of everything once the car is all back together.
