Now lower the cover or remove
Then remove 2 more of the same size bolts.the the cluster cover needs to be pulled toward you to remove it.make sure the wheel is lowered or even with the cover.there is 3 push clips on this

Now remove 4 more same size bolts and you will have to separate 6 clips to take the cover off

Now remove the wax backing on the overlay, pulls of in one direction look for the arrow and install double tape in various spots

Now place the overlay on the cluster, being careful not to hit the needless.i had the power on so i could line it up even around the lights and gauges. Now you have this
