    Does anyone make a screen protector for the instrument cluster? I'm trying to prevent more scratches and cover up the small ones I have.

    I use the ProTech as shown above. Its not that difficult to install, but can be frustrating. I would pay for the extra "insurance" piece if you do get it. But once installed and cured its great, bye bye swirl marks! I also put the matte screen protector on my large screen, and love it.

    Oh, and if anyone gets it, if you have hazy spots, they should go away in a few days post install.

    Does anyone know of a gauge cluster screen protector that does not have to be purchased at the same time as the 14" protector? I already have the nav screen cover.

    I looked for awhile but never found one. I ended up using a plastic polish made by Mothers. Polished up just like new.

    They did dumb stuff on the forum so the links don't work, but the screen protech ones are readily available. Not cheap, but good reviews from those that use them. A buddy used it on his Taco and loved it, and Chloe Kuo recommends them.

    @RainMan_PNW has some too, but IDK if he's installed them yet. :boink:

    Way to much money for what you're getting. I looked up the Toyota part for a new lens and it was cheaper.

    Custom cut with the squeegee, a microfiber cloth, and the premade soap solution in a bottle. Worth it to me to not pull the dash apart, though if I had your background I would probably agree with you.

    Except I tried ordering a new lens from Toyota.
    After three months of backorder, I was contacted and told it was on an undefined status backorder that essentially meant they may never have them again.
    That was over a year ago...maybe they are available again.

    Any new updates to this? I already have a protector on my infotainment screen, but would like to find one for the digital instrument cluster.

    No worries.
    Dunno if there’s one out there for the Gen3 or not. Good luck!

    I am looking for only the instrument cluster protector. Already have the 14” main head unit protector installed. Any leads on one for the instrument cluster sold separately?
