Do you have large hands? My hands are small, so this is rather easy 
for me, but a lot has to do with using the correct hand so that it 
will bend in the right direction and getting your body in the right 
place to reach up there. I don't think you can do this while sitting 
in the seat.

The clock is the easiest of the three to get out.

If you look at the Bentley '72 schematic, you will see that the clock 
power appears to be unfused. The clock wire joins the fuse box at the 
supply side of fuse # 8 (#1 is on the left.) I never realized that 
this wire was unfused, but it appears that several wires are not 
fused. Maybe that's why the click wire has that insulator on it that 
appears nowhere else.
