I just recieved a new bezel thingie to spice up my interior a bit

I am trying to figure out how to install this? I took out the 2 screws on the top of the black plastic piece that surrounds the glass and im thinking their are more screws on it because it wont budge! but where are they!

Did you physically remove the cluster from the car yet?
You need to remove the 2 screws underneith the top of the dash (in front of the gauges). Pull off the trim piece that you just unscrewed by lowering the steering wheel all the way. Then you have to remove 4 screws so you can remove the cluster. It just pulls out, no wires or anything. Then you will have to unsnap the clear plastic cover so you can get to the bezel.
Hope that helps!

Once the screws are out, pull the plastic cover straight out. There's little clips on the bottom that it clips into. Then there a 4 screws, 2 on top, and 2 on bottom of the cluster. Then, the whole cluster pops out. It's easier to take the plastic cover off first, then pull out the other half. Tere's only the 2 screws on the top of the black plastic. The the 4 on the rest underneath

You don't have to pull out the whole cluster but it sure makes it a heck of alot easier...
I did some custom airbrushing (indy silver) on the outer ring and the bezel area on my old car so taking it out was necessary... here's a pic... I also plan to do it on my new talon.... jake permitting :) lol Not sure on a "color scheme" yet

I got the same bezel thing off ebay. Too bad it turned out to be some cheap wannabe chrome-'look' cardboard with a plastic face, lol.
