Good point. I forgot about the clock. I don't know how they would 
respond to double voltage. My guess is that they would either seem to 
work okay, or they would immediately blow their internal fuse. I 
could probably come up with the 12 V clock parts to convert to 12 V, 
or you could just install a complete 12 V clock. They are easy to 
come by.
