The Clock on the ARC

[jessbat]

Not that i could find one in NZ, BUT - is it possible to retrofit a "trip computer" clock display into a 75 that has just a plain ole clock?

Id love to have even just a timer, fuel left and mileage would be an added bonus!

OK, since you guys brought up the clock discussion, I need help. I have a stock 2 button amber Verde clock and the backlight has worked 3 times since I have owned the car. How can I pop this sucker out to check the connection/bulb and are there any gotchas when doing so. I am hoping I don't have to pull the dash for this.

This is an easy check, just remove the ash tray, and on either side near the bottom should be a screw. Take both out, the ARC display should then come out. I think you have you pull the bottom out first, but its not hard..
