finally installed gear shift position indicator. The hardest part was remembering single din plate, dash bezel, radio dash bezel cover plate, radio sleeve, then radio lol (inside to outer).
I’m gonna save this quote for the future. Seriously- I’ve had mine apart a couple times, and always forget the sequence.

Pretty simple remove and replace.No removal of bulb bucket material required.
New bulb gasket makes it a little tight. I think over time the sharp edge of the bulb bucket will cut through the soft rubber of the new gasket.
The keys on the rear of the new glass bulb housing line up into the bucket quite well.
The only thing I don't like is how slightly off vertical the prisms on the new glass bulb housing lenses are.


right

I agree with @Snoots oven cleaner. Pressure washer will work great on clean off just make sure you are wearing safety classes.
