i should have made the title bezel removal but w/e.
alright well im trying to change my blower switch (i guess that's what its called)

the blue is the part im trying to remove
red is everything i have takin off
green is the part i want to change
i have removed every little ******* screw i can find and this thing will not move..i can get the left side of the bezel out but not the side i need to pop out...so frustrating..because i can take my whole dash out of my civic in like 20 min..but i cant do this!

Okay i am just doing this by memory, but you have two screws above the gauge cluster which you probably have already removed, and the two heat and fan switches just pull off and the plate thing in front of them can be taken off, you will need a small flathead to get in the crack to pry it out and there is one more screw behind a plate on the far right bottom corner and that can be popped out with a flathead also and from there everything will just pop off but you will have to unplug all the clips for the hazards, sunroof, etc...
Those are the only screws i can remember also. The bezel is pretty hard to get off the first time, it takes a while just take your time and dont pry too hard, they're easy to break.
The two posters above are correct. You didn't need to take out your centre console or the glove box area. Put those back in.
Above the speedo = two screws
Pop off heater *****
Remove panel beneath heater **** (pops out) for hidden screws
On the far right where your sliders are there is a little peice that pops out to reveal another hidden screw.
There *might* be a couple under your steering wheel but I don't think so... forgot at this moment. But once you have those out it's just a matter of being gentle andprying it all out. Pain the butt.

Odd coincidence, I just did this yesterday. There are indeed 2 screws under the steering wheel. 1 on each side. The plastic cover that you highlighted in red under the steering wheel needs to be removed to see these 2 screws. The rest is covered by the previous posters.
