Anyway - all the best on the nest step - look fwd to see the final 'final' results ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ron76 0 Posted December 15, 2012 How did you remove the bezel Hazz? I thought, if you remove the caseback the bezel would just come off, because of the screws going all te way thru the case. That did'nt seem to work for me. :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That did'nt seem to work for me. :( you see the tweezers, I used them to hold the small bolts on the back of the bezel screws, and used a rubber tipped driver to loosen the bezel screws. hope I explained that OK.

Not really I think you mean: You hold the nut in the backside, inside the case, with the tweezer. I don't know what you mean with the rubber tip driver??????
