Do any of you kids know of a good way to take apart a Victory Tach? I wanna paint the chrome, without messing up the clear glass?

Thanks,

H8 , I tried this myself to no avail , I was not able to separate them before I put so much pressure on it , I thought it would explode . Others I believe have since tried it also and opted to cover the lens with tape to paint . I purchased a kewlmetal cover from Victoryonly.com for mine . Looks great and no messy painting . Different styles to choose from too . just a thought .

Did you consider keeping the chrome trim and painting only the bucket? Bucket comes off with one screw.

the bucket is already black, now I want it all to match... I'll cover the glass and sand/paint away...
