260 clock in a 240z?

[240znz]

Is the 260z clock a direct replacement for the crapped out 240 one?

I guess that the dims are the same but what about connectivity?

Connections will likely be different, but you should be able to swap connectors or rewire to work in your 240Z.

There are a few people in the US that take 280Z "Quartz" clock mechanisms and install them in 240Z clock housings, retaining the 240Z faceplate and connectors. They work great.

I bought a quartz 260z clock, and swapped in the front face, and front housing. Connectors are different but I just soldered on the leads from a 240z clock. I had to make up a small bracket to attach the newer clock into the 240z dash as the 260z one attaches differently. I couldn't use the rear housing from a 240z clock because the quartz mechanism is so much bigger.

I did this myself after trying zclocks.com, but I assume he doesn't ship outside the US as he never replied to my enquiry.

hope it helps
