Part # 8162502
Instrument Surround, Black

I'd been waiting on this for quite sometime since it's been backordered. When I received it, I was impressed with the quality and ease of installation. I liked that the instrument screen protector was precut, but just like other owners, I find it makes reading the instruments too difficult. I installed it just days before an Iron Butt Saddle Sore 1000 and found it extremely hard to read my instrument panel in both daytime and at night/early morning. It'd a matte finish so I thought it would be an improvement, but it's not. I'll probably remove it sometime soon. I think if I were to purchase this again, I'd opt for the silver version because its a gloss black and doesn't really blend in and look stock. The silver version would look much better and look like it was on the bike from the factory.

Good service, perfect fit, helps reduce not eliminate glare. Didn't see point of included plastic sheet, so did not install it. Maybe it would have helped eliminate glare? Style does not quite match BMW -- edges a little too round, product is not quite the same black colour. Satisfied overall.

I purchased the Instrument surround and was pleased with the fit and material used in the product. But..the clear adhesive film was also included with the extremely minimal instruction provided. I was able to use liquid to "float" it in place, no problem. But again when I checked the next morning the film had bubbles despite the attention paid to avoid this effect. I removed the film and attached the surround. Disappointed with the glare reduction film, happy with the surround.
