Gauge Bezel

Ok, I just won an aluminum gauge bezel off of ebay, anyone have any tips on installing? I know how to get the dash out, but am not sure about the glass and the bezel, do these just pop off? Any help would be appreciated.

yep, its plexy so be careful not to scratch it. it just pops off. Use a flat head screw driver to get more leverage. You'll get it as soon as you see it.

If everything goes according to plan, you shouldn't even NEED a screwdriver - just a bit of leverage and patience. Also, clean the surface you're putting the bezel on with alcohol before putting it on. If you've got some adhesive promoter (which I know came with my CF kit), this would be a good time to make use of it.

Check Ebay too. You can generally pick up a used bezel for pretty cheap.

or better yet, a place to purchase universal rings?
