Default Cracked HUD Bezel

Does anyone know if it's possible to remove the HUD bezel from behind the instrument panel. It seems easier to just remove the gage cluster instead of the entire dashpad.
Thanks

The dash pad has to come out. No way to work around that.

There is another way. Don't know anything about it, just happen to see it in the parts section.
