71 blazer bezel replacement

Can someone tell me if just the instrument bezel can be replaced
On the 71 trucks or does the complete instrument unit needs to removed as a complete unit?
I've searched the net and they all show the complete unit being removed. Thanks in advance.

To replace the plastic bezel, the entire instrument cluster unit will need to be removed from the dash. Once that is done, it's super easy to swap the tin, lens and instruments over to the new bezel.
