Instrument Cluster Screen Protector - Does one exist?

[broderp]

Does anyone have a screen protector for their Spyder LCD display?

I'm late in asking this as I had the cluster out of my F3-S a week ago when sitting it on a table and getting a nice clean protector straight on install would have been possible.

I know it's not a touch screen but a nice protector to keep dust and small debris from scratching what I am assuming is a relatively delicate surface on the display.

Good with an exacto knife? Should be able to cut to fit a laptop screen protector. Not familiar if bezel will remove & maybe clamp down protection after. Just some protection anywayopcorn::dontknow:

The bezel does come off (4 screws). I had the whole thing (housing, bezel and cluster) out a short time ago - when installing a protector would have been easy-peezy. Getting it to all fit back the way it came out was a PIA, not sure I'm up for that again real soon. lol

Make a template with rice paper or similar material, trace with mechanical pencil, transfer on to a screen protector, and cut to fit.

LOL, it took me an hour to get it to fit properly. The main harness has a large ferrite or something that if it doesn't get lined up makes snapping the display assembly into the housing a no-go scenario. But yeah, I may do it in the near future.
