Bezel on cluster leaking light
It appears that my cars cluster bezel is not seated properly as there is about a millimeter gap between it and the surrounding trim. This is causing an annoying distracting light to creep out. Just noticed it tonight. Obviously it's not noticeable during the day, and if it weren't from the Gauges casting light, I wouldn't have cared too much about the gap. Anyone else confirm if they have a similar situation? I'm taking my car to the dealer on Monday, and it seems like the list of things I need checked out is growing. I am admittedly very picky, but I wouldn't expect this from this caliber of car. Is the bezel position adjustable via screw position or does it simply pop into place with tabs? If it's tabs and nothing else I'm not so sure that anything will fix it. :-(. Now hat I've noticed it I can't take my eyes off of it. Here are some pics for reference. Left side-no gap/light leakage

What would you do? Too picky? I don't know. But it really bothers me. Sorry for the poor cell phone pics and multiple posts. My phone would not upload multiple photos into one post for some reason. It also rotated them. But you can clearly see the light refraction of the gauges. 😒

I've never noticed it but I'll be looking next time I'm out at night. It looks like a good candidate for a piece of black electrical tape.
