    Clocks binnacle glass removal

    I've got a set of clocks for my 1993 Coupe to replace the broken ones installed. There's a load of dust and crumbs(!!) behind the glass.

    Does anyone know if the glass comes apart from the clocks? And if so, is there a procedure or can I just undo all the screws on the back until it comes away?

    IIRC you can take the clocks out from behind. I think the glass is bonded on...

      I don't think the 'glass' comes away from the housing, they are bonded together. If you fully strip the clocks you can get in from the rear. I sprayed some glass cleaner in, then poked a rag in and pushed it around with a screwdriver!!
