the cluster bezel should be just the 2 screws on the top, lower your steering wheel all the way and it should come right out.

The primer paint and Gloss is Dupli-Color i just put 1 primer coat on then 2 color coats then 4 Gloss Coats. It really does look like a factory paint and dash kit i was surprised how well it came out .
