Clock Light
Does the 98 accord dash clock above the AC controls suppose to light up whenever turning on the headlights?? If so...how do I replace the bulbs in there? And what size are they. Thanks

if you're unable to see the time at night, then there definately is a problem.. just stating the obvious..

This sux.........I tought I was the only one with the clock problem........since I bought my car with a little damage and I tought it caused the clock not to work............I took my friends 2000 Coupe Accord for a spin few times and his clock lighted up.................This clock problem is driving me nuts (when driving at night)...........but beside that I love my ride

Either buy a helms manual for your car, or just call honda for the bulb size.
