If your clock comes with the wiring socket on the back, this will make the job easier. There is 4 wires feeding the clock, just look at the back side of the clock and you'll see where to hook it up.

You have four wires>

1-power after ignition
2-ground
3-constant power
4-dimmer

I know it wont help much, but thats the wires you need.

Im not sure if this is correct but you could probably do it off of the radio.
Not sure maybe someone else will know?

Try this.

red=power after ignition
black=ground
yellow=constant power
white=dimmer wire

Get 2 long wires (2-3 feet). Connect one to the black on the clock plug and connect is to the -/ground on the battery. Now connect the other wire to both yellow and red wires and lighty tap it on the +/power side of the battery and see if it works (it should though). If it work, just connect it to the radio wires.

The color of the wires should be the same with the rest of your harness. The most easiest thing to do is color match the wires to your radio harness.

So the way to wire the EK Clock is to just match up the wires by color ????

Wires by color and functionon the harness are pretty much universal.

Found this thread finally and it worked. YOu dont color match the wires. That is totally incorrect.

Took pics of it too. I thought my clock lit up in amber but it didnt't because its UKDM spec (EDM)

Thanks anyways guys!
