One of my rare late evening drives and I couldn’t read the dashboard analogue clock. Is it normally backlit? If so, where can I find how to replace the bulb.

Yes, the clock is “backlit”. You will need to remove the center vent that surrounds the clock. Per the pic, the bulb is one like those used to backlight the speedometer instruments. The bulb is soldered to the green holder. Using a flat screwdriver, simply turn counter-clockwise to remove it. Hope this helps!

PS Here are the instructions I used to replace the bulb in my 06 XJ8VP:

Thanks very much, I also found a video or two that should help. Bob
