So how exactly do I remove the clear plastic cover from the black plastic housing that goes over the gauge system so I can put the carbon fiber gauge bezel on?

It appears to be melted together or something. Don't want to pry on it in fear of cracking.

you need to use a dremel. then when you put the bezel in use clear silicone to put the plastic back on

it is flexible enough to bend but not crease to fit in the hole

the carbon fiber is an overlay, the plastic bezel is still there, under it

to all those that are going to get it:
I had it. if you do indeed get it, make sure you protect your car from heat. mine craked in 3 places because of the excessive heat in the summer time. I loved the look of it when I had it, but I never felt motivated enough to buy another one. LOL
