how do you remove clock from dash

[billabongchris]

I need to remove the clock from the dash to change the bulbs, any advice as I cant find any screws to remove or not, cheers

 

[Matt e]

remove the top of the dash (very easy to do) and then the clock clips out

As the video shows, it's a very simple and quick process buddy.

LOL at quick process, dash is not the quickest thing to get out at all.

Top dash is about six screws.

Lower dash is a pain in the arse.

Top dash out is about a 4 minute job - and that's holding a beer in one hand

Will pay £50 to see it happen

Deal

 

[Cup_Phil]

Double deal.

I've had the one in my car out over a dozen times.

Pull both dash strips off - 4 screws, pull top of steering column up and off - 2 more screws, 3 screws along top in vents, 2 either side, pull door rubbers off
Pull hole dash towards you and up, over steering wheel and out the door

You could do it blindfolded!

It took me so much longer than that, I had to fight it to get it off the bulkhead, literally screamed at it in my driveway.

 

[billabongchris]

cheers guys will attempt this when I get the speedo leds as well so I can do both at the same time

What bulbs are needed for the clock?

 

[Harbinger]

2 Led Bulbs, same as interior light, but you need a white filter if changing the color otherwise it'll mix orange with the bulb color and look pikey.

 

[Feates172]

Just want the standard colour. one of mine isn't working, only half lights up.

 

[Harbinger]

Odd for one of those bulbs to go out, might be hard to get the same color, I'd say it's easier to just get a pair and change both of a similar color. Pain in ass of a job just to change a bulb though.

 

[Cup_Phil]

Again.. it really isn't.

A bunch of screws that take 10minutes to remove, pull dash top forward (towards you) and up. Remove from car.
Push the two clips either side of the clock unit down and slide it out - the bulbs are on the back of it

was 4 mins with a beer in hand last time we spoke, see it's just getting longer and longer.

 

[Cup_Phil]

Not everyone has done it 18 times like I have

 

[Harbinger]

Did the dash in 5 mins 30 secs yes I'm sad I timed it but guess you're right it's a piece of piss second time round.
