Odometer lense cover? 4 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
The lense covering the odometer looks like the intense sun of SC has melted it somewhat. It looks like a piece of plastic left on the dashboard of your truck for a few weeks - kinda curled.and yellowed. Anyway, just wondering if anybody has replaced this piece? Or, can you just remove it without any damage being done to the odometer? Thanks yall.

It's a UV filter to prevent sun damage to the LCD display. I ended up replacing the entire cluster, but I would recommend going to a Tint shop and getting a small scarp of clear UV tint. They may even give it to you for free considering it's scrap size. Clean old one off, wet and apply. Should work like new

Thanks for the tip. I'll try a local shop and see what they say.
