I did not realize it was a separate bulb holder.

Everything in Buckhead cost a lot, I learned that a long long time ago.

Buckhead = Big$$$

I always buy my bulbs locally, just match the wattage and type and go.
But that guid I linked to it useful in figuring out which bulb you need.

Ok getting the clock out was ridiculously easy but, on the analog clock there are 3 wires whereas the digital has a 4th green wire, is this ground? Do I need it? Will she stop running? Will I only be able to make right hand turns? Also how do you get the actual clock out of the holder.

There was a write up on how to do this a short while back, I thought I added it to the tech section but I cant find it.

I replaced my digital clock with an analog, looks much better than the digital. I used only three wires, clock, light, and ground. Use a multimeter to figure out which wire is always hot=clock power. I think one of the wires came on with either the key or with the headlights, that got wired to the light bulb. Ground was black, I think. If I get a chance, I'll go pull it back out out and see what color wires went where.
