I went to the dealer, and they wanted some crazy amount for the bulbs ($12 each?) and there is something like 4 or 5 of them. So I did some research online and found that you can order the bulbs for some of the other Infiniti models for much cheaper online and just replace the bulbs from one housing to your Q45 housing. Your bulbs will have a little green (or blue?) rubber cover on them and you have to move those over as well. I ordered them for a 2003 G35 off of the large auction site and paid about $9 for a set. Do a search for 2003 Infiniti G35 clock light bulbs and you'll find them.

Having the clock illuminated makes the dash look nice when it's dark outside.

Have fun and let me know if you have any other questions.

I'm not sure what's in the 2002 clock but in the G50 clocks they look like these. Bulbs can be purchased from Radio Shack for a couple of dollars a pair and it's very easy to install the new bulbs on the holders (with the aid of a magnifying glass) and transfer over the rubber covers. There's a larger size available from Radio Shack but I think you'll find that the smaller bulbs shown in the pic are the ones used in the clock.

Thanks but do you know the number of the bulbs so I can get them?

I drive a 92Q so i don't know the Infiniti P/N for a 2002 Q45. The bulbs in the pics are from part outs and I've never purchased them from the stealership. The Radio Shack P/N for the micro lamp is on the package shown in the pic.
