Default Wanna install a clock

Hello everybody

I found on ebay a small 2 - 1/4 inch clock that hhoks into the 12 volt system.
I was wondering if anybody has done this yet or seen it in a jk. LOOKS LIKE IT WILL FIT BETWEEN THE TWO CENTER FRONT A/C VENTS AND IT HAS A BLACK BEZEL.
I had a cj-7 that had this clock and I miss it.

Thanks bill

Haven't done it or seen it. You should be the first to do it, and you can take some pictures and write up an install for the other.

I thought about that too, but I then I thought, maybe he wants it because it's reminiscent of his CJ-7.

Oh, dont get me wrong, I am the first one for mods. I cant leave anything alone, never could. I had my motorcycle torn down to bare frame the day I bought it. built it back up from there. I'll tweak anything i think i can. Or cant, then bust it and figure out how to fix it. If i didnt break it at least once, i didnt mod it enough.

It just seemed odd, to put a clock under a clock is all. NOW, if i had a good guage pod on the A-Pillar....

I think you'd be the first with this one. If you want to see what exactly it would look like post up a centered straight on pic of your dash, and a pic of the clock. I'm sure someone would be happy to photoshop it for you.
