Sports Chrono clock

[David W.]

Anyone know if SC clock can be swapped for one with a different colour face and if its affordable. Not sure I could live with this.

I’m having a yellow one put in mine this week so will have a black one for sale shortly. Coming out of a 2018 991.2. PM me if interested.

Thanks, at least I now know its possible to change. Haven’t bought the car yet as red clock was a deal breaker for me.

Get it bought! You can have mine for half the price of a new one and fitting is easy.

P.S. take care with making sure you buy something compatible. The latest models send can-bus signals down the wires rather than old fashioned current so I'm told by my OPC.

On a related but slightly different tack - I was driving home about 10pm tonight and noticed that the SC clock wasn't lit up. That got me thinking: firstly that I couldn't ever remember specifically noticing the lack of illumination before (nor can I ever recall specifically noticing that it was lit up either!) and, secondly, wondering if the SC clock is meant to light up at night along with the rest of the instrument binnacle (btw it's a 997 GTS manuel)

Anyone know?

Thanks

From memory on my 997 GTS it was only illuminated either when timing or if a time had been set and left. Pretty sure we’ve all played the ‘stop at 9:11’ as it looks cool and stays illuminated
