   depends where you got it from.
   
   mine i had to remove the dials
   take the clear cover off the front then use double sided tape to stick it on.
   then just put the cover back on and back in the car.

   Ahh right, i got it off someone on here. May give what you said a go. But it doesn't have any holes in it for the rev counter etc.

   best thing is make a template or 5 and then cut the holes with maybe a hole saw?

    i think there designed as backing plates for like stack dashes. you can cut it using a dremmel but have lots of water handy and pour it on while your cutting.. the fibers are very bad to breathe in and it makes the cut neater
