when you remove your dash, there is spot (indicated by indentation) on the bottom the the dash to cut.. I used a dremmel tool with a cutting wheel, but I used one of those flexible extention attached to the dremmel.

I made my rough fit with the cutting wheel, then I cleaned the cut with a round sanding wheel. You have to make a U shaped cut. the trick is getting the bezel in the proper alignment with the projector.

Take you time and do it right, you do not what to mess this job up.

Let me know if I can be of any further help.
