I know this is a little late for daylight savings, but...

Did anyone else appreciate that the FR-S probably has the easiest in-car clock to set, ever?

All you have to do is press the H button and the clock will go up 1 hr, the min button goes up 1 min. Very easy indeed, no more tricks or holding down a button for 10 seconds just to change the clock haha.

:00 is in seconds, thats right, pretty convenient. It's as if the engineers knew this car will create plenty of dates for the driver and now you have an excuse to tell that person you are not late because the clock is only showing 8:59 instead of 9:00

Minutes are set it and forget it. I want the hours to have a forward and backward because that's the number that changes in dls.

Looks very similar to my 02 accord's clock... it also has the H and M buttons and one that resets it to 12:00. The only thing that sucks is that the backlight doesn't work, so I cant see it when its dark out

that ":00" button is just useless. Make that a rocket launcher switch or something...

btw OP, your car seems to be very clean. i don't see dust on your dash.

Have you noticed your digital speedometer also reads the speed going backwards?

thats why i said it was a stupid idea. i have been trying to figure out where to put one with an oem look and the thought to somehow transform the :00 button into an on/off switch popped into my head. lol
