Gauge Cluster Lens(?)

The plastic cover over my gauges has spots all over it and I would like to replace it. Has anyone done this? How hard is it and where can I source the new piece? Price? I did this on my 240SX for similar reasons but I don't know if its the same situation here. Also the lens over the climate control and compass is the same way.

It's not easy but it's also not too hard. That lense is very fragile/brittle and can crack easily so be careful with it. I think it runs about $40. I have some pics of the cluster removal I can try and post up.

Well I'm thinking ill do the dash light conversions at the same time to make it a little more worthwhile. I hate the amber/orange. I'm thinking red or blue since the car is red or because blue is... blue. Thanks for the reply

Sorry for the attachments but I'm not too savy with the embedded pics.

I wrote up a DIY a few years ago so the text is still here but the pics are gone.

Excellent, Thank you very much. That should simplify the process. Any info on the a/c temp lens?

I think it was $30. You just have to pull the finishing piece off.

Would these items best be sourced through Riverside?
