    The clock in my HZ GTS Monaro did not work and I had an instrument guy in Ballarat replace the internal works with those out of a VB Commodore Clock. He said the VB clocks were a really good qaulity.(apparently german made and sourced from Opel GM's Europe arm)The only negative was it slightly moved the position of the adjustment arm in the face.(no one's ever picked this up) He kept the origianl GTS face, and fitted the GTS arms on the VB clock.It works fine and keeps time perfectly.
    I'm sure there are people doing different things but this worked in my case.

    cheers Rob.:lol:
    Thanks for that info HJsandman, I knew that they change the clock on the Commodore to a "quartz style of clock internals", which is much better system than what in the HJ to HZ dask clock. I like to give this a go, so a trip to the wreckers and have a play around. Thanks for that info.
