Hello all,

Can someone give me some idea of how to whip these clocks out?

Taken off the steering wheel cowling and cant see any screws or anything....

Clock surround comes off, then it unscrews.

you use stereo removing tools (u shaped bits of wire metal) they slot into the 2 little holes either side of the clocks and unclip the clips inside so you can just slide the whole unit out

thats true on a mk2, but this is a mk3. Dude has posted in the wrong section Easiest way IMO is to first remove the radio and air vent (the air vent pulls out and theres a screw holding the surround on.) Removing these means you can get your hands in and in to press the clips in. The clocks will just pop out then. theres a plug at the back of the clocks that can be quite awkward to get at, but you should be alright.
