What kind of knife did you use to sacrifice the chicken?

I'm sure someone will be along with your answer soon enough, just hold onto your sense of humour in the mean time.

They install from the back.

Very easy to crack the lens if you attempt to take it off !!!

You need to remove the instrument cluster.
Once removed you disassemble the gauges until you have the bare housing.
The rings fit through the gauge holes and secure in place with the tape supplied on the rings.
