Cleaning Instrument Glass

I need to clean the glass on the INSIDE of my speedo and tach - but how the heck do I get the instruments apart to get in there?

Actually, there are some great old threads on this topic in this forum. You might want to check out the old "archive" too and do a search there.... just click on "Archive" under "Forum" above...

Hey... where in South Lyon are you? I'm in Windcrest at 10 and Dix....

EDIT: I found THIS in the "Articles" section....

Thanks guys - I figured that might be the only route, but I didn't want to experiment. I notice that Z1 Enterprises sell a replacement chrome upper housing that comes with a screw-clamp to replace the crimped one. Unfortunately they are showing it out of stock at the moment!

The chrome cover is a dress-up item for the upper half of gauge which simply covers and doesn't replace the crimp clamp or any other oem part.

Chrome lower half of gauge is usually the oem black metal which has been chrome-plated.

There are posts hereabouts as to best method to remove and replace the crimp clamps, including cutting it off with a dremel and re-assembly using JBWeld.

But here would be my preference:

Good Luck!

Of course, you could always pay somebody to do it... there's a company that specializes in that sort of stuff that lists in the VJMC magazine... let me know if you want the info and I'll look it up...

By the way, there's a couple other people I've met (or written to) that have KZ's in town...
