FYI if your bezels aren't fitting flush or with a gap you likely missed one of the guides.

Yup I did the myself on the first one, had to pop it back off and line them up. There are two longer tabs that are a little tricky at first.

Got mine installed. They definitely make the car look better than the fake ass grills.

Glad my DIY had worked for everyone, if I would have know the harness was going to be this popular I would have just made some and sold them

I could always make a DIY guide for a harness, hmmmmmmm

Edit: Added pics of my set up and how to remove the panel. As you can see from the picture, the button is huge. I need to make the hole larger still so it can go in further and be flush with the panel.
Would it be possible to make that button that's not used (by the dash lights) usable?

I don't think so. There seems to be missing electrical pieces for that to work, plus it doesn't appear like it turns/flips. It looks to be a filler piece.

However, it might be easier to remove that piece and replace it with a switch that would work.

I might try to do that now that you mention it, the current button is just too big for my liking.
