brig Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 Hi can any one tell me how I go about changing the colour in the digital clock from green to blue in a gen 7 I recently got a digital clock with the blue mod already done to it but it must of come out of a pre facelift as it will not fit my facelift gen 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucyLou Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 (edited) The facelift clocks are harder to do, red being the only colour that easy to achieve. I thought pre face lift clocks go into face lifts though? I'm sure the general consensus is if you want a colour other than red buy a preface lift clock and put in your FL? Check out the American Celica forums, they have a great thread on it PS.

LucyLou Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 (edited) Glad you said that Cravo, I did doubt myself as I posted but I was sure they did I must admit when I did mine I have Sheps old preface console and my face lift so I tend to swap them around when I fancy a change so never actually put the face list clock in the pre and vice versa Edited May 24, 2016 by LucyLou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brig Posted May 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 (edited) HI lads and Louise its the plugs on the back of the clocks there different see pics the top one is the pre facelift clock Edited May 24, 2016 by brig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucyLou Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 (edited) The plug still does go in there though, like I mention I'm always putting a preface clock/console on my facelift when I fancy a change I thought you meant the mounting itself was different I've just checked and my pre face lift console in the shed is def the same connector as your bottom pic and my facelift loom plugs into that?

Cravo Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 Yep should plug straight in. Preface is the easier of the two to change to blue as its green and facelift is easiest to change to red cos it's orange I've had both in face lifts and going the other way into preface. They have always been exactly the same. Maybe it goes in upside down tho I can't remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planc Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 Plug is different an will not fit. One clock is from a car with manual air con and the other is from a car with climate control. The manual air con has the outside temp on the clock, and climate control cars have outside temp on the heater control. The give away is on the left hand side of the clock, either mode or 00.

LucyLou Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 Ahhhhh that explains it, mine are both climate and I'm guessing Cravos were too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planc Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 You can remove the plastic front and swop them over, but it depend how the colour change was achieved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
