    The "inside" of my Tach and Speedometer Glass is soiled. I can't imagine how it got that way, but can anyone tell me if and how the front can be removed so the glass can be cleaned? Or do they have to be taken out of the dash from the rear somehow?
    Thanks!

    Just bring it in your nearest Ferrari dealer for service. It would be more safer.

    Woody -

    It is a sealed unit, and I'm pretty sure the only way to clean the inside of the plexi would be to remove the pod and disassemble it from the back. I guess it depends on how much it bothers you...

    Is it hazy from condensation, or is there actually dust and smudge on the inside?

    Woody, have you been off roading with that bad boy again?

    It looks like two or three drops of liquid were spilled and left to dry on both the Tach and Speedometer. Does not look like a factory event. No big deal, I thought I would just expose the question to large group of knowledgeable people in case there was some simple solution, but I don't think it is.

    Hello,
    Yes, this can be risky to disassemble, but you could try to ask how to do it (if it is possible) to your favorite Ferrari technician.
