BEZEL REMOVAL

Post by peanutman »

Any tricks to removing the bezels behind control knobs on our bumps. Seen tool set made for this in npd. Hate to spend that kinda money for use once of twice. Used watch bezel remover on my ignition switch but it won't work on others.

You can try needle nose pliers, but if you aren't careful it's really easy to slip and tear up the chrome finish on the bezel.

just tap the notch with a screw driver in the circular direction that it is unscrewing.
