Hi,
The clock on my wife's Carisma doesn't light up at night so you can't read the time. I assume it's something simple like a bulb but how on earth do you remove it to find out! I can't see any screws on the clock or on the surrounding fans/heating controls.

The panel around the clock is held in place by 4 clips . All you have to do is prise it out using a wide thin steel lever. Dont use a screwdriver unless you want to damage the dashboard. It comes out directly towards the rear of the car. You can then get to the bulb on the back without taking off the wire to the heater , There is Just enough space to do this. you need a small screwdriver to take the bulb holder out.

Thanks - I'll give it a try. Any idea where the clips are located - top and bottom, left and right or one on each side?
As I recall there are two compression type clips on each side. You just pull the whole assembly forward gently. When I pulled mine off I also managed to unclip the central vent louvres - really cheap and nasty plastic so be careful.
