    i put switches where my stock clock was. i needed the extra switches and i could fit four of the ones i use in the space. Could probably fit more if they were smaller. For me four is enough

    i took the clock out of the truck took all the guts outs and i actually used the same piece that is the display for the clock. The reason i did this is because the clock housing is already made to fit the hole and to screw in. On the back you can see the orginal housing. I had to fill one of the holes in. The other 2 got cut out in the process. (the holes for setting the clock).

    Oh cool, thanks! I've always thought about doing this. Just never have looked behind at it.

    easy to take out and the clock has small snaps on the side those tend to break very easily so be careful and then theres to screws holes the pc board in. All you need is a dremel and switches of your choice. The back of the clock had to be cut out in order for the switches to sit down flush.
