Put my Bezels on!!
I got my bezels in at the first of the week, so I would have a small project to do this weekend. I got to put these on yesterday. I will start putting everything back together this afternoon.

Just finished installing mine too. Mine became a bigger then expected project. Since all those panels where out(radio bezel, cluster surround, rear console) decided to sand them all down and have them painted. Came out pretty good. Love the bezels. Makes the cluster pop and looks awesome at night.

They came out looking great.
Couldn't imagine what the dash would look like without them until one fell off from the high heat here in AZ.
(bought the car last year with them installed) I have to pull the dash apart to fix this fall. I have not decided what other mods I'll do while it's apart.

I also used black RTV on the bezels. I just ran a bead along the angled part of the back, used my finger to "smear" it on evenly, and then seated them into place. Once I had them where I wanted them, I let them set for a few minutes, then cleaned off the excess with a damp cloth.
The RTV allowed me to manipulate it a little to get them where I wanted them, unlike the gel or glue which I think sets pretty much instantly. Once in place and "cured", they seem to be stuck pretty good. Also, I hope that takes care of any issue of them coming off with part of the dash like I have read about as it is more forgiving.
