does anyone know of a good way to get the clear plastic cover off the instrument cluster? i hav the stainless trim to go around the gauges but i cant get that off. tried using a razor like the instructions said but that wouldnt work. any help would be appreciated

 

the cluster should pop out of the dash and from there you should be able to separate the clear plastic piece from the gauges. I'm currently 1,800 miles from my truck so I'm not 100% positive.

 

i got the instrument cluster out and everything i just cant get that plastic off. its glued on there damn good

 

ive heard put them in the oven but im not sure.

 

no dont put it in the oven, i dont honestly remember having to cut any thing to put on my nu image white face overlays

 

there should be some screws or something. no no on the oven.

 

no man no oven. it should pop right off, isnt there a few clips around the outside? push them in and it should pop off.

 

It�s a big pain! True, the stainless steel bezel installs
on top off the black OEM bezel. Nice!
This will be a whole lotta fun, but it looks real cool when your done.
I used a dremel and carefully cut the glue seem.
Genially pull the Plexiglas and the connection should easily pull a part.
Easily; and take your time, if you tug to hard the plexi will crack!
The dremel tool scratches the glass when your cutting, but
After everything is installed U can�t tell.

I also used the dremel to sand the barbs that were on
my stainless bezel. Good luck!

 

how long did that take u with the dremel? i was thinkin about that but scared i was gonna screw somthin up in the process. did u just use one of the little cut off wheels?

 

I was a little scared. I used one of the small cutting disks.
how long did it take? hummmmmmm. I cut a little,
stopped and found something else to do.
Then I'd start up again. I guess about 1-1/2 hrs.
Oh and I didn't start breaking the glue seal until I had made a cut
all the way round. I noticed 40% of my cuts weren't deep enough.
Touched em up a little at a time.
