I am replacing my cluster and need advice on the best way to remove the bezel after the 2 screws on top are removed. I assume there are clips keeping it in and dont want to break them off. Also once it is removed, will there be any other "clips ect..." that I need to know about for the cluster? 92 dx hatch.

there is more than two screws, if i can remember right, there is one behind the clock and think there might be one more before the bezel comes off....

there isn't one behind the clock but there is one just below that behind the hazard button

OK, Also I am replacing the entire interior from grey to black. If you have anything I need to know, such as hidden screws or suggestions on doing it right, please post here. Thanks for the info. Im headed back out to the garage to attempt the bezel removal.

I have no clock in mine but there is a cover piece above the hazard switch. I tried prying it off but its not coming. Should I pry harder? suggestions? Also I tried the driver end of the bezel and it isnt loose. Any other screws?

the clock block off plate is screwed in from the back side. You have to remove the bezel first to get to the 3 screws holding it in. I used a butter knife to seperate the bezel from the dash and gently pulled on it. Work on one side then the other etc. and slowly it will come just be carefull. you will probably end up breaking some of the clips but it will go back in fine as long as you are carefull.

I used a tool that was pointed on both sides but one side had a 90* bend on it to remove some of the tricky interior pieces when I replaced my carpet.
