Just bought a traffic master clock for the ZS on ebay for £28 including postage.

Are they any good?

Gonna be taking my dash out to get rid of some creaks and rattles so thought I would put in a traffic master clock while its out

bargain! Much less than the going rate at the moment

I like having mine, it seems to work quite well around my area

I fitted mine recently but to test it worked i had to drive to a motorway ! All looks ok and it's one of those gadgets that you actualy hope you will never need to know if it fully works !

replaces your original clock and picks up trafic information through those big blue poles at the side of the roads.

Depending on what wiring you have in the car either 4 or 5pin clock, if a 4 pin clock you have then it will fit ,if a 5 pin forget it.

Exactly as Kev says - in othe words if you really want one make the effort to take your dash' apart and have a look at the original plug ! Can be took apart and re-assembled in 20 minutes tops.

bad news.

I fitted the traffic master clock but some of the segments are missing.

Seller has told me to send back and i will get a refund which is good

been looking at others but they are all going for £40 plus

Bad news that but £40+ is the going rate - you got very lucky with your initial purchase, but only price wise unfortunatly !

OK, thanks.

I don't supose you know the colour of the five wires so if need be one can replace the 5 pin plug with a 4 pin plug?

It's all in the main ZS user manual.
