Default Gauge Bezel Overlay



What is the best way to remove the dash trim piece to expose the gauges for installing this? Just wanted to ask here which screws and all to remove since I'm bad at that ( I always lose screws or get frustrated and break plastic clips, etc ) lol.

there should be two screws under the dash (as you face the guages) remove those, then you'll see a little notch underneath the cruise control etc on the left hand side, slide a little screw driver in there and pry a bit and pop them out, then you may have to remove the stereo trim panel to reach up behind the dash and remove two more screws there and the rest is platic clips I believe....

How do I remove the stereo trim panel?

Sorry for all the questions, I'm just always prying/pulling on the wrong things and causing problems in my last vehicle.. lol.

no problem man I used to do the same thing.... here's a link for the stereo panel removal and the manual pages for the bezel removal on a 94 (your's should be about the same).... rock it out, get some photos while you work if possible!

I would skip the overlay and just get new faces for the gauges you have now. You can go flashy or classy. Just my 2 pennies...

I'm going for the minitrucker style look, with billet mirrors and such.. so I'd still want to use it, but I'm still interested in changing the face of the gauges too.. what options do they have for accords?
