Hi guys, I have seen a few threads about removing the clock in a Disco 1 but never with pics, and these still leave people confused.

I'm not sure if I have seen them on this forum or another so I'll post it anyway and hopefully it will be usefull to someone.

It would be nice to know if this is the same for a Disco 2 (before and after facelift, the only LandRover I have been in is my Disco and a new 90 I took for a very short test drive because I felt like it)

It's sooo easy and all you need is a credit type card, to be honest, it's much easier with two and preferably a smooth card with no embossed numbers..

1. Here is your dash, see the clock on one side and the coin tray in the other, it's the same to remove these on both sides



2. Just for your info and to make these easier so you know what you are aiming for, these are the tabs you are trying to displace to allow you to remove the clock. There are two on the bottom and two in the same position at the top



3. Insert the first card, corner first underneath the clock. Keep pushing and feel around to make sure you push out the clip



4. Now straighten the card out and push further in so it is square



5. Repeat at the top



6. Slide left and right (or even put the card in longways to ensure both clips have been pushed)



7. Now all the clips have been released pull both the cards and the clock should slide out




Sorted

coooool

Can you do a better photo so i can read your credit card number, LOL

I'm from Manchester.. I'm not THAT thick..

It's a Matalan card and my old AXA Healthcare card ; )

Handy to know that thanks, is quite easy to end up snapping bits of plastic when you don't know where the clips are. I'll be swapping my clock over as the current one doesn't light up..

It has a light in the back ... about £1,99

Looks like a small black plastic cube about 10mm in the centre of the back of the clock ... hold it with thin nosed pliers, turn 90 degrees and pull.

There's a very thin plastic piece underneath with the contacts on, try not to screw it up when putting the new bulb in.

Nice one!! Off to Maplins then..

Great "How To" guide with those photos. Got the clock out straight away. Cheers stretchie.

I made a video of removing clock and changing light bulb on a disco 2

Clock bulb replacement on Discovery 2 - YouTube

Brilliant, chaps - thank-you very much. I have been looking at the in(or de?)structions in my Haynes manual for the Disco 1 and it looked like a real recipe for buggering the little clips because it didn't say where they are. Now I know - so as soon as my wife isn't looking and I can "borrow" a couple of her cards.....................................

Apologies for resurrecting an old thread. But, having removed the clock and coin tray as above, can anyone tell me if the wiring loom is flexible enough to allow the positions of the clock and coin tray to be reversed, so the clock is on the passenger side of the heater controls? Are there any other gotchas? (I'm wondering if I can move the useless coin tray across to the driver's side, modify it and mount a EGT gauge there on the drivers side.)
