Digital clock above the dinning table in 83 Pace Arrow

[kartvines]

In our 83 Pace Arrow, The cheap JVC digital alarm clock that is built into the cabinet above the dinning table is bad, and worthless.

I am seeking either a replacement or another clock that I could install flush where the current one is, that are is approx 7" long by 6" tall, and I want to be able to wire it into th existing 12 volt.

Has anyone found a replacement that worked in that spot, I have to assume that this clock has failed in many other RVs.

There are plenty of cheap digital clocks out there but so far I have not been able to locate one that I could install flush and have it looks as if it belonged there. I have already checked out Walt's RV Salvage, in Fontana, with no luck.

Any Ideas?

The clock in my 5er 'died'. My fix was a $5 replacement digital set of 'innards' plus an hour of tinkering. Most of these 'innards' are held only by the nut under the hands. You also might need a new set of hands for it as well. These can be found at most craft shops like Michael's or even some of the larger Wal Marts. Total cost - less then ten bucks and an hour. I've done several other clocks that way as well. Of course, you can buy even better 'innards' on line or a clock shop, but not sure that they are worth the extra money.
