The HUD overlay simply adheres over top of the damaged bezel to cover & reinforce the unsightly cracked & weak original part. Save labor, No need to remove the upper dash pad install.
Step 1. Use the alcohol wipe to clean the broken Bezel of cleaners and protectants for a good adhesive seal. (VERY IMPORTANT! CLEAN WELL!)
Step 2. Place the new Bezel cover over the existing Bezel and check for good fit. It completely covers the broken Bezel down to the dash pad in almost all installs. (Use painters tape on top of new bezel for protection from adhesive during install). Don't tape front of bezel down to windshield, so tape can be removed.
Step 3. Place a piece of paper, cloth, etc. over the projector glass, and use blue painter tape to go around your broken bezel on the dash pad for protection from adhesive drips and excess during install (Get as close to bezel as possible with tape).
Step 4. Put a drop of the adhesive / super glue (NOT INCLUDED) around the entire bottom center of the new Bezel zigzagging about 1 inch apart. Now carefully place the new Bezel over the old cracked Bezel and apply firm pressure while properly aligning it dispersing the adhesive. Keep pressure on bezel for about 1 minute. (Remember, the adhesive sets up in seconds depending on conditions, humidity, temp, etc., do not use under 50 degrees F). You don't need much adhesive, too much will prolong set up time. If weather is cold, run heater to warm interior before installation.
Release pressure, your new Bezel should be in place. CAREFULLY wipe off any excess adhesive, if any, on blue tape and remove tape from dash pad and bezel, and remove projector glass protection.
Step 6. Allow 24 hours for adhesive to fully cure.
