Nope, straight swap. I did this myself. Just need to get clocks with mileage as close to yours as possible or get it corrected once fitted.

Plus you get the added bonus of a built in shift light. I didnt think it would work on a wrx but it does.

Why would you want to do this?
Seems like a pretty pointless mod.

I changed out my WRX ones for an STI set back in the day. As above rev counter in middle was my main reason.

quick question!
see if i swapped out my bug sti clocks for a set of sweeping style hawk clocks, do i need to do anything to the car to get the clocks to sweep, or is it simple plug and play?

It requires faffing with wires trimming plugs and also as the sti has dccd the clocks will have non functioning parts too
