I have an idea that the clock just pops out cause it's only held down by clips. Can someone confirm this before I try and yank it out. Need to slap some padding in there. The rattle there is driving me up the wall..

thanks

 

Yes it does, just pry up on one side and it will pop right out for you

 

Cool thanks!

 

Be careful when you do it! The matel clip may drap (I lost one)and you won't be able to get it back without completely remove the desh.

 

eeeeP! good looking out

 

What actually causes rattle there? Cause I got the same damn problem!.
Thanks

 

talkin about the clock, does anyone know the wire to cut so the clock wont dim? thanks.

 

Not too sure what it is but it sounds like either hard plastic snapping each other or lose wiring slapping against plastic. I will update this once I get a chance to take a look at it. probably tomorrow night after work.

 

That wire slapping on the underside of the dash sounds exactly like what I have on my '03 SE. I've brought it into the dealer three times under warrantee about it and they can't track it down. On one try they said a clip on the clock mount was broken and they ordered a new one. But when I picked up the car and looked at the work order that said they replaced the radio surround.

It's not a real bad noise and seems to come and go but with the rest of the car bank-vault solid it sticks out and is very annoying.

If you track it down, please post.

 

All right guys i've just took my clock to chenge LED and lost one metal clip. Does anyone have an idea where to get one?
Thanks.

 

Welcome to the club. I also lost one. I tried to use some magnet to get it but no luck. I think the only way is to remove the whole desh.

 

Can you vacuum it up? Stick in the hose from a ShopVac, suck it up, and dig it out from the recepticle?

 

Not sure if you can vacuum it up but if you can 1st place a panty hose over the vacuum nosle so that way it will stay trapped there and there will be no need to dig for it.
