Default Need help w/replacing dash bezels and *****

I want to replace my "Lights" and "Wiper" bezels and *****. They are the only ones in bad shape. I was stupid not to replace them last year while the dash was being painted. Not sure how to remove and replace these so I thought I would ask for some assistance. I'm hoping this is relatively easy and can be done without damaging the paint around the bezels. Thanks!

Ok, We'll start with the Wiper **** and bezel first, not to hard here! Just insert the allen wrench into the hole on the wiper **** itself, look good it's there!
Step 1 is done! Step two, you'll need to unscrew the bezel, you can use a screwdriver or buy the special tool they sell for this, I just used a screwdriver and it worked fine! Just insert it into one of the slots in the bezel and turn it, and presto it should turn! Light **** you'll need to get your hand up under the dash and feel for the headlight switch, on the side or top theres a small botton that sticks out just press it in and hold it in as you pull the light **** out! Next unscrew the bezel nut and your all done! I took everything off then sanded all the factory paint off by hand, then primed and painted it! Looks nice now with all new ***** and bezels!
