starman351 Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 It does indeed. Just installed one on mine last night (along with a gen dial and hands). Be sure to use the springs from the rep when fitting it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cougaree Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 Once the gen bezel is installed, is it tight or loose when rotating it? Does it stay close to the case? How did you remove the rep bezel? Thanks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did you remove the rep bezel? Thanks? Mine rotates nice and smooth just like the gen. I did grease the clickspring to make certain it would. It fits nice and tight. Just like the gen. I use a swiss army knife to remove the bezel from the PO. Start prying with the small blade, once you have a decent gap switch to the big blade. The rep bezel removes easily. The gen will not. Be sure you have it just like you want it before the final install. Test fit it without the lockspring in place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
