Default Aftermarket Clock

I am sure others have come up with a decent solution. I have a 2001 and the clock on the radio really irks me. Suggestions?

thx!

The Honda solution of putting the time on the radio is a weak solution. Every time you want to see it you have to flip the radio lid and glance down to the lower part of the dash. If I am on a twisty road, I need to slow down a bit just to get the time. Its an annoyance, and one of my peeves about the car. Its not a major issue, but its an ergonomic flaw in the car's design.

Its not an ergonomic flaw. They designed the car for simplicity, therefore acomplishing what they wanted. 2000 models had no time remember. I would bet money that JDM models don't have a clock on their radio either. Its probably a concession AHM made for the 'Murricans.

My S2K is a weekend car. Everytime I get into the car I don't even want to know what time it is. I'll just keep on driving it until I have enough.
