    You can buy a quartz electronic conversion kit on eBay for like $90 and convert it yourself. If not, I offer that service

    I found a quartz clock that uses a AA battery from a second hand store and made it work to fit the stock face plate and hands.
    This way it keeps the time when the car battery is disconnected. It was a little time consuming but a fun project.

    Thanks guys. Will take a stab at self fix or quartz conversion. Thanks for your input.

    My 2 cents - quartz conversion is the best - lasts a long time. Mine is still keeping time after 10 years!
