Gauge-curious: What tool is used to remove and install the black outer bezels on the center console oil and temp gauges? Is there a source and approx cost?
Looking to buy (or borrow) one to clear the fog haze off the inside glass surfaces. Not sure if I trust myself with the small screwdriver pry method list in a past thread. Last resort would be to ship to CA, but seems excessive for just glass back cleaning. |

I just Googled "where can I buy new VDO black bezels" and was pleasantly surprised. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
