I believe their are 2 small phillips screws...I replaced mine just last Summer to replace the clear Lense. Apply heat via blow dryer to seperate the glue/adhesive that binds the lense to the Instrument Cluster Itself.

I tried to heat them up and it just wouldn't work...so i painstakingly cut the glue out and it came apart and I glue it together after i put thw CF bezel in.
