    Would you happen to have the part # for the replacement? This has been bugging me for a while.

    I have not removed the lens yet but you need to first remove the dash trim to access the lens. Just pull your silver or orange trim straight out. Start with the radio surround and then the cluster surround. Comes out easily. From here, @Scooby24 will have to chime in.

    4 10mm bolts and then pull out. Lol there's not much else to it.

    Also, I got a view of the film in direct sun and there are still fine scratches so the film solution isn't a fix after all.

    How do you get to the bolts? Just pull off the trim around it by hand?

    Thanks!
    Be ordering mine soon. What's the best price y'all have found?
    It bugs me so bad seeing these scratches. If I would have just declined the complimentary wash and interior cleaning at the dealer, I'd still be ok.

    I wonder if a camera lense cleaning wipe would scratch it?

    My buddy had a lot of scratches on his cluster plastic, so he removed it to buff the scratches off and apply a clear coat of rustoleum topcoat and problem solved. 4 years after and his plastic cluster looks BRAND NEW!!!

    Now that is some good info. 3rd Gen and no discoloration? Just curious in case the material type is different.

    Even being as gentle as possible and clearing the loose stuff off with a Swiffer Duster, I'm starting to get some fine scratches.
