Hey guys,

How do you change the Lettering's on the auto shift surround?? I want to make my own custom one :D
I know its just a plastic piece there but i don't know how to take it out.
Is this even possible or would i be breaking it if i even try to pull it out. :?

Any Help Guys.

I don't think it is as easy as it sounds.

The only way to find out is to get a spare one and give it a go.

It does come out, ie they are not a single moulded piece .. once you take the clips off there is a little glue around which holds it all together. I have pulled two apart, one went very easy (as there was very little glue) one was much harder (but still came apart)

I swapped over the all white letters to the coloured ones when I upgraded to a wood grain surround.

Can you post some pics as to which place is the glue and how did you take it out? did you wedge a flat screw driver and pop it out? This is all after you've taken the surround out that is.
