Default Dash surround fitment?

I've taken the surround for the instrument cluster out several times to mess with the light bulbs and things and I've never been able to get it back in right.

it seems very fiddly and other than the two screws on the side to hold it in i can't get it together, the top pieces that kind of stick in just flop back out and it looks awful.

any tips?

It's a PITA.

If you have the patience to keep after it eventually it'll all fit together properly. Very fussy job.

No tips, sorry. It always takes me numerous tries to get everything lined up a fitting "just so".

Others will chime in

Cheers
