Racing Beat REVi screen

The screen that is front of the MAF is a little damage and I'm going to change it out using the other screen from the shock air box.

The screen is a PITA to install or remove does anyone know a trick that they could share with me to make my afternoon a little simpler?

Just use a very small flathead screwdriver to pry out the screen. Wedge it between the edge of the screen and the tube. Something like a 3 mm flathead will do.
It's really not that hard to get the screen out...

Thanks for the replies guys

I woke up this morning foggy I guess when i posted this thread LOL

It was so easy a newbie could have figured it out. I just forgot the process and didn't want to damage my last screen while doing the switch.


I just had the use a flat head screwdriver and push the rubber housing outward an the screen came right out. Same process for the new screen being installed. Simple

CLOSE THIS THREAD... I woke up an idiot this morning LOL
