When you were done, were you able to set the hands from the front, as
original, or do you have to reach up under the dash and do this from
the back of the new movement?
I have to reach from behind to set it. This is because the distance
between the minute hand and the clock "glass" face is very tight. Too tight to be
able to add the part that would catch the minute hand. Add in that the
clock kits are set up for a second hand, and it makes adding the "catch" piece
more difficult.
However, with a fresh battery, you only have to "re-set" the time twice a
year (spring a head, and fall back), so it's not really that big a deal.
;-) Now IF you were in an area where you have a time change (lived close to 2
time zones), then it might be a problem.
