    Thanks, Daze! Ironically, I found a new take off on ebay. It didn't have the clock option but I used a cabinet bit to drill the hole for the clock set arm. My original was extremely smokey,

    1971/72 Galaxie/LTD:

    D1AZ-10887-A .. Instrument Cluster Main Lens-Less Clock / Obsolete

    D1AZ-10887-B .. Instrument Cluster Main Lens-With Clock / Obsolete

    No Ford dealer or obsolete parts vendor has either part number, none on ebay.

    Thanks, BKW.
    I located a new take off without the clock arm hole. I used a cabinet bit and its perfect.
