Best way to remove (and reattach), guage bezels? Options

[bondo]

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)

I did it to my clock to fix it. It is not all that bad if you have a mini screw driver to start. Just pry it enough that you can get it loose. Don't bend the lip too far. You only need to pry half the edge and slip the rest out. When you put it back on just grin and bare it and use your finger tip to try and get the lip pushed back as much as you can and then use a big flat as wide a you have screw driver to seal it up. You will have a couple scratches which you can cover up with a sharpie in black. A little bit different black but only you will notice. Good Luck. By the way, The glass is normally clean on the inside so try not to finger it up.
