a tiny illuminated clock?

has anyone ever tried to fit something in that useless space between the hazard and rear defogger buttons?

i'm thinking of putting a clock in there like the stock clock i had in my old pulsar. it's the perfect spot to stick a clock since i find that looking down at the stereo takes my eyes off the road too much (my hand gets in the way of where the clock is). also, i'm changing the deck in my car to one with a teeny little clock in the corner of the display, which would be even harder to see.

any suggestions for a digital clock that would fit in such a space?

Dont you already have a clock on your dash gauges? Well, adding another clock would be redundant but its your call.

IDk, i had the same problem, no clok in my gauge dashes, it came in the STOCK headunit, but no one has that anymore. All i did was i went to a dollar store or any automotive store, and they sell em there. Just velcro it on...

no, my dash is all... gauges. no clock. it's like playa said, it's in the head unit, and being all the way down there makes it a pain to have to look at the time (which i do very often as i am always late).

Playa123, is there a way to actually fit one of those clocks in that space, and wire it up so i don't need batteries, like a clock in older nissans (like my old pulsar and my buddy's 2nd gen maxima)?

How about trying to put in a cellphone holder? You can get a charger built into the holder too. Ive seen many nice aftermarket cellphone holders in Super Street, Sport Compact Car, and Japanese V.I.P. car magazines

Here's some pics of what I have in my Sentra. Just to give you an idea.

It's an optional part from Yulon Motors in Taiwan. But I've seen those other brand cellphone holders bolted/screwed into that unused panel. That might work for you too...and is much cheaper and easier to do.
