Lexdem:
It's been a while since I did this, so please use your craftiness to determine if you need to change the order at all, or if I miss a step.
You can replace the clock without having to replace the climate control. I know that for sure. The entire dash console comes out in one piece, and each of the components attach to the back of it.
You will need to remove the black or wood grain trim on the console, which can be loosened and pulled up and off by prying with a small slot screwdriver near the corners. The rounded piece between the ashtray and climate control pops out also. Look for pry spots on the top edge of it. Then remove the 4 bolts that hold the dashgoard console in. You may have to pull out a cover piece first, by grasping the strip between the air ducts and the clock.
If you have questions, or run into problems - try emailing me at thebeachsideteam@cox.net.
Es300 Clock Not Working...

If any of you use the ashtray for a coin holder, you might want to put a piece of sponge or other non-metal material in the hole for the cigarette lighter... if you've removed it. I found that the fuse Matt refers to above was blown, and replaced it. Then I proceeded to turn on the power and melt another fuse. It turns out there was a coin that fell into the hold for the lighter and was shorting the circuit. I removed the coin, put in another fuse and wah-la... problem fixed!
