I'm looking for owners of 1995 Pros. I want to know if the clock pictured is the factory one. I got the car and it was already screwed up. I tried some glue but no doing. I've tried EVERYTHING and I've come to the conclusion that the clock pictured isn't the one for my car. I saw a pic that stef_nz sent and it sure looks like it but when I try attaching it, it won't go. the legs on the clock are tilted forward and another backward but the legs where they should screw into are flat (straight) I give up. Can someone help?
P.S. Ignore the arrows, they have to do with the defroster I'm in process of fixing

I don't know what it looks like, but heres a clock out of a stock one.

My 95 pro lx didnt come with that clock stock. Hmmm.... maybe they put different clocks in after a certain period of time. Who knows?

Neither did my 95 ES - it had the hour and minute buttons on one side and a reset button on the other, with a smaller display area than that one appears to have.

Don't still have the car to put in a picture, sorry.

My clock is beside the rear window defroster (or under the ac vent) and I have a 95 LX....I wonder why this guys clock is in his casstted deck...

The way that worked with Mazda is that , If you got a protege with a radio that displayed time , then you would not get a clock , but if your got a radio (from the factory) that did not display time then you would have the clock , that is the reason why some of you have clocks and some of you don't ,... If you check in your manual it will also tell you the same thing
thanks

Well atleast I know now that the clock is the same one. But what IS strange to me is that the legs on the clock are angled two different ways and it would make the mounting of the clock practically impossible without the dash having the same angles. Can anyone check that out for me? Thankx

PS Mine has the hour and minute buttons on the left side and the reset button on the right side.

I don't think so. I have seen some proteges with that same radio but without the clock and clock button. The clock was in the dash above the hvac controls (fan/ ac controls). My mom has a '96 Protege LX with that same radio and it does not have the clock in the dash. The clock is in the radio. This is what I think mazda did. For one year (1995), they had the clock in the dash. The following year, they dropped certain items such as the in dash clock and front door lights I guess as a cost cutting measure. For instance, my moms car does not have the front door lights (the lights way at the bottom of the door that come on with the dome light when you open the door), but i noticed a '95 on a used lot and it had lights in the front doors as well as the clock. A '96 that i also saw on the used lot did not. This is how i determined this. Interesting.

Well I just bought a new (used) clock. There is or was this guy on ebay with a 95 Protege and he was selling it in parts and pieces and I got quite a few parts. for $64.00 (including S/H) I got:

• Rear drivers-side power window motor
• Dash piece (black piece that goes from left to right)
• Clock
• Car battery tray

I'm soo happy! If anyone wants his e-mail ask me and I'll give it to you. I think that the car was an ES, that means a lot of extras including a 1.8LDOHC motor. I'm sure it was a 95 second gen.

Well it turned out that the clock that I had since I bought the car from someone else was a completely different clock to the one made for my car so it's all fixed up
