Correcting LCI cluster scratches

Saintjah · 07-07-2022, 01:13 PM

N Screen protector installed.... note that I am an amateur at installing these things so I think with a professional install it will look amazing. This is likely our solution to the scratching issue.

Likely that I used too much soap to lube it and this thing is probably the most powerful dust magnet known to man.... im sure a pro installer will know how to perfect this.

I didnt do anything to correct the scratches but it seems the cover hides them very well.

Yes, fitment is pretty spot on. There are a few small imperfections but i dont notice unless im really trying to pick at it

I’d say go for it, the matte finish on mine seems a bit blurred in my opinion…I did Matte for the cluster and Entertainment system, gloss for the environmental display. Also, I recommend taking the cluster out to install because all of the tight spots are tough. I have some imperfections but it’s better than the scratches. I’ll take another crack at it later…

I went ahead with the Matte finish, took the cluster out.. perfect fit. After trying it for few days, I also found the gauges too blurry to use, so I ended up removing only the gauges film. I might order the clear version and only use the gauges circles.

I highly recommend this product

Took it out as in removed it out of the dashboard? Was that relatively easy to do?

Yes, very easy to do. I followed these instructions:

just hoping for an update on folks that have a film over the LCI cluster. hard to see in the pictures but how are they holding up and do they really mask the scratches underneath the film (ontop of coating)?

Hello, I have a G20 with a dashboard similar to yours (matte), I also scratched it (it was reassuring to know that it wasn't me but that it has also happened to other people). Does anyone know any ppf for this model?
or another solution to this problem
