Overlay removal with no damage??? - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #81544 5 posts Started by Bigblock
I want to get rid of the overlays on the gauges & get the sweet stock look back. Never worked anyway!!!
They came with the Celica when bought, so IDK how it's applied.

Is there a safe way to remove without damaging the original??

Thanks for any help & tips!! Greatly appreciated!!!
depends on how the previous owner put them on, if they were glued too then it will damage. if notglued,they just slide out

Thanks njccmd2002!!

I'll be taking a look Friday morning. I have some 3M adhesive remover I used to remove weather strip glue, but I think it would be bad news for the gauges.

I've read that it's NOT a good thing to lift the needles off.

Oh well, there's no teacher like experience. Lol!!
