sealant on gauge pod - help

[Hotwheels]

I have some clear sealant squeezing out between the gauge pod and the dash where it attaches. I tried to simpley wipe it off but it is too sticky. Any recommendations on what to use to remove it and not damage the pod?

thanks !

I've heard of this issue before, seems fairly common. My guess would be to remove the pod and gauges (Easier than you think) and get some goof-off or goo-gone and give that a shot.

Instructions how to get the pod out? I was told to pull out and down or something. I eventually felt like it was going to break, then it came loose. So when you feel like its going to break, you must be getting close. Maybe you shouldn't listen to me...

Thats the adhesive for the rubber trim piece on the aux gauge cluster/pod.

I used mineral spirits (WD40 as works too, or Goof off), applied to a rag, sparingly, worked small section at a time. Then you'll need to clean the spirits up with something like a windex or 409. You can let that dry then hit it with your favorite interiro plastic shine enhancement product.

Note: Open all doors in the car, or leave windows open anyways, let the stink vent out (spirits) they can be strong..and for god sakes man, don't spill any in the car.

I tried the goo-gone followed by soapy water and this worked very well. thanks.
