how to remove clock?

I tried searching but only found bulb info. How do you remove the clock?

One of the bulbs burnt out and it's dim as hell....not that it was much brighter with both bulbs working. Man, I wish we had the sedan backlit clocks.

I just did this 2 days ago getting to my stereo.
You need to get your fingernails behind the top of the hard plastic trim surrounding the clock & A/C display. The easiest way is to push up with your thumbs on the underside of the upper piece to raise the plastic enough to get your fingernails in. then pull towards you hard. it helps if you have 2 people doing this at the same time.

remove the connector for the flashing light and set the trim piece aside. then the clock is held on by 2 screws and another connector. That's it!

Hey, that's good to know, coz I probably would've stopped in fear I'd break something.

Uhh....I'd do it if I had the rest of the lights switched to blue as well. I don't think a blue clock will look good amidst the orange **** pit. Hmm...then again...

A single blue w/ a sea of amber would not be good. Accordfreak changed his ALL to blue. it's not easy.

Just bring it back to the dealer for warranty work.
