Or is it adhesive backed and may cause problems if it started to fade or wrinkle from the sun over time and them mess up the original bezel when I try to remove it ? I sure like the look.
Thanks

dont worry bud... i was gonna make a diy for the overlays.... like a VIDEO diy that way i can explain everything to everyone from start to finish i didnt disasemble my gauges at all... i just wet the sticker set it and wiped off the water..... its not a static cling sticker it has an adhesive... i can always get you another one in the future..... plus since its indoors and not outside... it will last really long...

I only cutout the middle on mine, but I was using a utility knife at the time.

no its just a transparent clear over the little indicators

the only part cut out is the middle also and also where the little led dots are at

Can't wait to fix this.

Free bump.

It sounds pretty simple. Please add my name to the list.
But... would you be willing to experiment on your car first and see if removing the overlay after it had set up and dried for a few days damages the original bezel beneath from the adhesive ?
Thanks again
