Another small project I�d like to take on this spring is painting the gauge cluster. Is there a way to remove the trim, without removing the entire cluster assembly? This is what I�d like to do: current future

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

No. But it is not hard to do. There are multiple good write ups on how to remove the cluster. Takes 10-15 minutes. Just protect the rest of the full leather with a towel first You Tube

I was hoping not to have to remove the entire cluster, but it doesn't look too bad based on this video. Thanks for posting it. I imagine you would place the towel near the lower end of the cluster, so it doesn't scrape when pulling out the bottom, correct?

Good idea
