Hi guys.

I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with installing the roof mounted GT clock in a base BA XR6 / XT ?

For those that are unsure what clock I'm talking about, see the below attachment.

I had a look in the tech doco section of this web-site and couldn't find anything. Anyone here done it before who is able to post a tute, or a link to a tute?

Thanks in advance.

We get the roof mount clock because we get the gauges, and the premo sound with climate control display doesn't have a clock.

Definitely do the gauges, I've done that myself in my XR and it looks tops. However, I'm very clueless about the roof mounted clock.

Anybody out there able to help? Cheers.

When you're driving a GT, you don't care what the time is.

Definitely an afterthought.

FPV Engineer 1. We'll give 'em dual zone climate control, and the premium sound system.
FPV Engineer 2. Gotta give 'em some gauges.
FPV Engineer 3. What about a clock?
FPV Engineer 1. takes off his $1 digital watch.

How many clocks do you want data-mine? :P

My oldmans got a BF ghia, the clocks mounted to the roof, but its part of the sunnies holder as well, so im guessing the GT's have the same thing?

Looks like you need the sunnies holder to go with the clock vertg0, but im not 100% sure as I've never noticed the clock in a GT before :P.
