Fitting instructions.

The instrument must be removed from the dashboard to fit the new bezels and glass. Remove the bezel and glass. On the 4 inch instruments it is sometimes easier to remove the glass and inner rim complete and then seperate. Carefully clean any parts to be reused. Now assemble with the new parts. Note there is only a gasket under the glass on the 4 inch instruments. The sponge cord is fitted inside the bezels. Turn the instrument over and place face down on a solid flat surface. Using a blunt instrument such as a srewdiver carefully peen over the tags so that the bezel is pulled tight against the glass. The instrument is now ready for refitting to the dashboard. The square cut gaskets fit between the instrument and dash.
