All sti clocks have beeps, not all do the sweep though. Later clocks will require a small mod on one of the plugs to fit

They started the sweeping dials on the Hawks, along with the dash being backlit black/orange instead of the blue/green dash on the blob.

There not cheap, around the £200 mark still. And the Dccd lights look odd unless you put a bit of black tape over them.

You could just mod your clocks like mine, much cheaper

Sweep is only on the Blob JDM and the Hawk STi
Yours should bleep on the rev limiter in conjunction with the LED flashing but you can turn the beep off aswell as set the rev limit level with a certain twiddle combination with the plastic stalk that comes out of the clocks (I can't remember the twiddle order though)

Can be done, but its PITA!

This is the third set I've done. First set I ruined, but it was a learning curve. Second set was a JDM set, easier as less markers. Went the full hog with these. They light up red even without the lights on, and get slightly brighter at night.

The earlier HVAC dials are just a matter of changing the bulbs over, the later blob/hawk require some serious modding. Still working on mine as Ive a few bright spots.

And the clock....work in progress.
