Remove tach bezel
Hello,
On my 2011 S, the tach bezel is black, where the speedo and bezels around the vents are a light gray. Is it easy to remove the tach bezel so I can paint it to match the other bezels? Thanks.

I saw these online at Moss MINI. $27. I have never seen them in person so not sure if they would match the rest of the 2011 trim, but they are NOT chrome.

It's relatively easy to detach the front part of the tach housing. Look at my installation instructions for InvisiLens: http://www.fes-auto.com/products_det...p?productid=32
The actual bezel ring is bonded to the front of tach housing and not removable. After removing the front piece, you can mask off the area you want to paint.
