Instrument Panel Bezel Removal (for paint)

[pomaranj]

Does anyone know how to remove the instrument panel/gauge cluster bezel? It appears to be plastic and I would like to touch up the paint on it. I peeked behind it but I couldn’t see how it was attached to the dash.

on a 57 get very small screwdriver and pry up one end, it just lifts out. Has a slight press fit.

I think on my car I had clips that held it in place behind the dash. If your redoing it then you need to unplug all the wires anyway. Unplug them all and it will allow you more freedom to move around. I put mine back in without the clips because it was a tight fit. I don’t know if clips were standard on those cars but mine had them
