Radio Door With Clock
Ok so i bought my S a couple months ago. It came with what im assuming is an aftermarket radio door. Its leather and has a clock on it (see pics below). I was wondering if anyone knew any info about this, and the biggest thing would be does anyone know how to set the clock. Also how hard is it to remove this door to put a different one on, if thats what i decide to do. Thanks.

The vinyl print radio door was standard on the early AP1s before the faux brushed aluminum ones were produced. A Google search shows the clock to be a Formotion Superleggera automotive clock.

Setting instructions from the site:
"To separate the clock or the thermometer from the base, simply insert a blunt object into the small hole found on the base of the mounting plate. (The bottom is determined by the red and round sticky-disk with the hole in it) Gently push the blunt object in to the hole until you see or feel the gauge start to separate from the base. Don't push to hard, because you are pushing against the gauge's back and could damage it.
Setting the TimeOnce the gauge starts to separate, it's best to finish removing it by your finger or fingernails. Once the "Press Fit" gauge is removed from its mounting plate, setting the time becomes obvious and is done exactly like your wrist watch: Gently pull the stem to set the time, and then push the stem back in to start the clock. Once you are happy with the time setting you can then re-insert the gauge back inside the mounting plate. Done!"
