Soaked Interior = Replacing the clock, but how?
Background story:
Last Thursday I was on my way to dinner with my gf and we had to drive through a deep puddle on the way to the restaurant. Like all the cars ahead of me I was driving through slowly (especially with my cai). The pickup behind me decides he can't wait, and passes me on the left (on a two way st) and flies through the puddle. Of course on a nice night, my window is open and my car gets completely soaked with dirty water. My clothes were completely wet and there was so much water in the car that the clock had a little puddle inside of it. I won't mention the road rage that happened afterwards, but unfortunately I got no retribution.
The next day I found that three of the little lines that make up the numbers of the clock stopped working, and the little puddle in the clock was gone.
I was wondering if anyone has changed their clock?
Anyone know the part number for it?
I saw that people have changed the light behind the clock, but my situation is a little different since I will have to change the entire clock.
Thanks

This is for the clock bulb, but the process is the same. To remove the clock you just unscrew it from the dash bezel and screw the new one in. Hope this helps.

i would have to disagree if you are saying its my fault for having the window open rather than the guy speeding by on the wrong side of the road.
does anyone know the part number for the clock? im wondering if im going to have to buy the entire dash piece to replace it.

I've hit puddles (not even terribly deep, a few inches, though big) in the CL with the purpose of making a splash(I'm easily entertained), and splashed LARGE amounts of water higher than the roof of the CL, so i could easily this happening. Driver is an a-hole, i would have chased him down and let him know what he had done.
