Instrument bezel?
Hey everyone i just installed a new jvc aftermarket radio in my 1984 c1o and i have to cut part of the instrument bezel to make it look like a proper fit and i was curious if any of you had any experience using certain tools to cut this with good results?
Thanks. |

Re: Instrument bezel?
I like the dremel tool with a tiny bit. If you trace the lines properly, you can make it look almost factory. I think they sell templates online.
Here's one on Ebay.

Hot knife. Just melts right through the plastic.
