The rest is clips, if a tilt wheel, lower it, pull carefully and it'll come right out. If you have a helper you might have them pry the top of the bezel down from the dash so it'll release easier.

It might be possible to do by prying the gasket up but I doubt it because of the angle of the screws. Last edited by 440newport; 09/15/23 06:48 PM.
