My beloved, (she gets to drive the mx5 everyday, lucky lady,) is looking for a time clock so that she can see the time of day. She was also looking for a temp. gauge but I told her to just put the roof down!! Any ideas for a Clock? I have been looking at a stand alone time piece on it's own pod but I haven't seen any with white dials. Have any of the standard radios got a clock? I wouldn't mind swapping out the after-market one as it just doesn't look the job, fancy and all as it is. :?:

I have one of the bmw clocks for sale, €20. The connecting cable is missing, but if you're hany with a solering iron then there shoul be no problem. Never got aroun to fitting it, then I change cars. Sorry, I've just realise that I nee a new keyboar...as you can see I'm missing a letter..the one between c an e :roll:

Thanks a million lads, it looks just the job. I certainly will take you up on your offer John, I presume €20 doesn't include postage!? If you like send me a PM of your mobile number so I can give you a call and we will arrange collection somehow or other.

Now how good is this? Just half an hour's work to a find a permanent feed, (Yellow and Black feeding my radio) and fit the tray. Finding a feed for the back ground light is another day's work when I replace the speedo /rev counter lamps that are blown. Thanks to Leamyj and Steve for the advise and Leamyj for the goods to do the job.

Lets not complicate life and it certainly fits better than the radio above it. I removed the JVC iPod box of tricks to stop the radio from popping out when hitting the bumps too lively. Just another job to do.
