For some reason Hyundai decided the expensive asthetics of a slow fading up analog electronics clock was a better idea then a cheap LED display. It's also custom made for the car. It dosn't make much sence to me.
I always wondered why Hyundai spent so much on the clock. When I first saw how it turned on, all slow and what not, I had assumed it was LEDs on a warmup circuit. I knew it was vacuum tube technology when I opened it though.
Hyundai spared NO expenses when it came to the clock or any of the switches inside the car. It seems that they didn't pay as much attention to the door plastic though becasue that cracks on every tib.

Yes, the 97-99 is different from the 00-01. Here are the part numbers and Dealer SRPs:
97-99
94510-27000
$122.99
00-01
94510-27050
$94.52
There's no way I'd pay this much for a clock, even if it IS a nixie tube... lol.
I'd be checking eBay.

Those ARE USA Dealer prices though, I'm talking about GB from Korea...

Your dealer must be on crack...
More than a year ago I ordered a clock from kspec, if I am not mistaken, it was around $35; i don't remember exactly though because I ordered it with other items, so maybe it was $35 + shipping, but it was reasonable to "renew" my dash look...
If your clock has problems, get a new one...

Yeah, these are USA dealer prices. If you can get them that much cheaper from Korea, I may even be interested, just to have a spare... lol. Mine works fine right now.

I was looking through ebay for Tiburon stuff and found a clock for an RD2. It's 0.99 plus 12 for shipping XD. Is this your auction Superbee?
