Default Analog Clock help

I recently got an IS 350 used and noticed that the analog clock in the dash has dropped a bit. It looks like someone pushed the buttons for changing the time too far in (the buttons are slightly below the casing now). Anyone know how I can get the clock buttons pushed back up and out?
Would really appreciate it, Thanks!

Welcome to the forum!

Could you post a pic so we can see how far the buttons are in.
Just in case it's normal and nothing needs to be fixed.

Can you take a toothpick or something and poke the buttons to adjust the time? Might be stuck in but hopefully should still work when pressed.

The OP is saying the buttons are broken cause they're pushed in too far.

You're likely going to need to replace it. buy a used one on ebay. better yet, pretty sure you can retro an RC clock into it which looks way better. don't take my word for that though. i looked into it but returned the car before i got to do it.

Pretty sure the RC clock and center registers should be drop in.
