Ahhh, the joys of technology for the sake of it. The digital clock on my car is in the middle of the driver's instrument cluster (between the speedo and rev counter dials. To change it you simply reach through the steering wheel to turn a small knob clockwise or counter-clockwise to adjust it, keep holding it in that direction and the time ticks up / down by 1 minute until you let go. :-) I don't think the car's radio / cassette player (yes a cassette tape system) has a clock - it displays the radio frequency. I'm not sure if my mother's much newer car adjusted the time itself or if she had to do it via the touchscreen menu system of her car's infotainment screen.
