Ah yes, �pursuit of perfection when good enough will do� makes Vanagon
ownership even more of a hassle!  However, pulling out my phone to check the
time while driving is cumbersome with the seat belt blocking pocket access!
I guess I could wear a wrist watch.  Or stick one on the dash . . .

Van Cafe says ...'tested in-house by our bolt rounders'....very cute. I like
that, 'bold rounders. ' 

I find so many other more important things to fix on all my various vanagons
and the other ones I work on that if the digital clock is a problem
...sometimes I just blank them off with black vinyl tape.  

We have so many other time devices everywhere these days anyway . Trying not
to know what time it is would be a problem even.

And here is a piece from Vanagon.com on using one from a Golf (if you can
find one!)  http://www.vanagon.com/problems/clock.htm 
 
Hopefully someone can come up with something else.
