I've seen lots of "it's easy if you do it right" and "forget it I always screw them up". I haven't seen a good description of how to do it by the people wo are really good at it. (dr. evil?)
I have spares of speedo/tach/combo guages, but no spares of the 911 clock and small combo guage size. I need to be good at it by the time I get to those. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) Any suggestions? (I have 5 guages because I'm doing the getty dash thing) |

and then put it back on kinda' like a piston ring. start where the bezel is the least bent, and start working your way around slowly, not giving up where you've already got it attached.
yes it sucks. remember to keep the order of which stuff is removed to put it back on right. my mistake helping others..... |
