Welcome to the JeepSpecs.com in-depth page of WJ Generation Jeep Grand Cherokee interior trim moldings and bezels. Did we mis anything? Please get in touch with us and tell us about it!
1. Radio / air vent bezel
The radio bezel is a one-piece unit that includes the center air vent grilles. The bezel is held in place with 4 spring clips. With a wide flat tool (a 3″ plastic spackle tool works great), gently pry on each vertical side and carefully pull the bezel out a little at a time until it is free. The red areas in the center picture are the felt-lined receptacles that the bezel spring clips fit in to, which shows the general area of where to pry when removing the bezel.

2. Instrument panel trim strips
Left instrument panel trim piece, front and back
The short left trim piece can be removed from the front. It is held on with two spring clips and can be pried out easily with a small trim stick or similar tool.
Right side instrument panel trim piece
The long right strip above the glovebox is attached from the back of the instrument panel with four 10mm bolts and is much more difficult to remove. Due to safety considerations in the event of an accident, it is securely bolted on from the back. This trim piece is laminated to a piece of thick metal and weighs more than a half pound. To remove it requires the disassembly and removal of the entire instrument panel, including the cluster, radio, A/C unit, glovebox, ashtray and so on. Although not as difficult as it sounds, it could take 2-3 hours to disassemble the dash and put it all back together.
The right side trim strip is laminated to a thick metal backing
New molded dash trim appliques are now available that will fit nicely over the front factory trim pieces without removing them (See the Aftermarket Dash kits page). Owners who want to upgrade to the real wood Overland trim strips will have to remove their existing strips as no aftermarket trim kits match the Redwood design.
View from behind the glovebox area showing the four bolts that attach the long trim strip. Also seen in the photo are two of the air vents, which are also attached from the rear with screws.

3. Front and rear door trim strips
The four interior door panels from a 2003 Overland
The Spartan Burl door trim molding strips are not available separately as replacement parts, the entire door panel must be purchased. The Redwood strips used on all Overland models, however, can be purchased individually and installed into other WJ door panels. Since the matching dash strips and the radio bezel for the Overland are also available, Limited owners can order all seven parts and have the real redwood interior. The woodgrain Overland steering wheel, although very expensive, is also available.
Several aftermarket companies offer trim kits to upgrade or change the factory interior strips and bezels. Products offered include vinyl overlays as well as moulded plastic stick-on pieces for selected trim parts. The trim pieces can also be removed/masked and painted any color. See Dash Trim Kits.

Interior door trim pieces for the Overland, front and back
4. Cluster bezel trim
The cluster bezel trim piece is held in place by 4 spring clips, one at each corner, and pulls straight out. On the left side, you can reach your thumb behind the bezel at the tilt wheel lever cut-out opening and pull forward. If so equipped, you’ll need to unhook the Adjustable Pedals harness from the back of the bezel. . The 2002-2003 cluster bezels, with or without the built-in switch can be ordered and easily installed on 1999-2001 WJ models if a color change is desired. Adding a bezel with the switch to a WJ without Adjustable Pedals allows one to conveniently control a selected accessory of their choice. The switch is momentary-on but could probably be modified to work “on-off”. The “Pedal Adjust” writing could be painted over and new lettering added for a very professional looking installation.

5. Steering column opening cover
The lower steering column opening cover is held in place by three screws, two bolts and three spring clips:
1. Remove the upper steering wheel trim bezel (see # 4 above, “Cluster bezel trim”).
2. Remove the two screws at the inside top of the lower trim bezel (left photo above).
3. Remove the plastic fuse cover underneath the left side of the steering column opening cover.
4. Remove the side Phillips screw and the two 10mm bolts underneath the bezel trim (upper right photo).
5. Pull the steering column opening cover rearward to disengage the three snap clips (one outboard and two inboard) that secure it to the receptacles in the instrument panel. The clips are very snug, requiring a fairly strong pull on each side. When replacing the cover, be certain to align the two plastic guide pins as well as the spring clips before pushing it back into place.

6. Lower center bezel / ashtray
Three different bezels – woodgrain, black, and for 2003 a cubby hole instead of an ashtray.
The lower center bezel assembly is held in place by strong snap clips near each corner which can be gently pried out with a plastic putty knife or trim stick. Tip: The bezel will come out much easier if you remove the plastic tray below it. Once you have the bezel out a few inches the wiring harnesses for the power outlets, ashtray light and heated seats can be unhooked and the bezel removed. The heated seat buttons can be easily unscrewed from the back for installation into a new or different bezel.
Shown above left is the black lower center bezel, front and back (with power outlet and seat switches not installed). Above right, the new style with a cubby hole instead of the ashtray that debuted on the 2003 models. The bezel is attached to the instrument panel with four spring clips.
Some owners have found unique uses for their center console ashtrays, including this clever installation featuring switches mounted for overhead Hela lights.
