So I just spent a lot of money on a top-of-the-line Alpine deck and guess what...the normal operation display doesn't include a clock. I figured I'd ask if anyone installed a clock in their Camaro before. I was thinking of mounting one from the top of the CD holder/cubby hole, and maybe making some kind of PVC face for it. Where can I buy a small, red digital clock made for cars? (I want it to turn on and off with the ignition, so maybe some unit out of an Audi or something might work.) Recommendations?

Top of the line Alpine W/O a clock???? are you sure???

Every Alpine I've owned for ~10 years has had a clock...

 

 

Red96Lt1 follows me. The normal display shows the cd counter/radio frequency along with ID3 tag/station titles above it. It has a calendar/clock display, but you need to cycle to it. Basically, when the calendar/clock is shown...it's the ONLY thing on the screen...there's no compromise. I triple-checked the manual to see if there's any way to customize it, but apparently only the CDA-7897, not the 7998, has an option to display both at the same time. Any clock recommendations or suggestions? I'm picky about cheesy installs, so I want this to look as professional as possible.

 

Can anyone help with this clock project?

 

Just go look for a clock you like, and install it, simple...

 

Where can I get them? I was hoping to save time by getting suggestions of other car clocks I can purchase...
