There's a screw behind the hazard switch I believe. if not then it's just a bunch of metal clips. (you gotta pull hard but be careful.)

If you wanna wait around I'm gunna do mine this weekend probobly. I'll write up a how to.

If your talking about the gauge bezel, which is the black thing around the gauge cluster, there's only 2 screws. AFter that the top part should be loose. Just pull. Don't be scared.

no ones saying in which direction to pull...

pull toward you away from the gauges. just put your thumbs on the bottom near the edges and pull straight out toward you...be carefull cause it comes fast out and will crush your thumbs if youre not carefull...this happened to me...

Oh and when you finally get it out and change the faces be really carefull not to break any needles...cause then youre screwed. I broke my temp needle off...but i glued it back on :D

yeah, 2 screws and pull toward you (2 bottom clips are released that way)
