I did this in about an hour.!! I followed this link that i found in the serach!!
http://www.contour.org/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=genmods&Number=832207&page=&view=&sb=5&o=&fpart=1&vc=1
Works perfect!! i am very pleased with having a clock!!
Well just wanted to share my new mod.
I kinda don;t like the oragnge color to it. It is starting to grow on me, kinda.
Does anyone know if i can change the bulb to a green one instead of orange. Only to match the interior???

yeah, you can change it. But it's not the actual bulb it's a piece of colored rubber that slides over the bulb. Kinda like a bulb condom I guess.

I think any auto parts store....I can't remember if I saw them at Murray's when I was there picking up my new bulb for the clock. The only thing that sucks is you're are going to have to pull the clock, pull the bulb, change the rubber thingy, then solder the bulb back in.
