Installing 2 gauges on pillar. Need help and pointers

I am finally getting around to installing the EGT and Boost gauges on my truck.I've had them sitting around since before summer...

Anyway, I've read some posts on the install of the double gauge pod for the A pillar.( Can't remember if thats what its called)

Anyway, I don't know if I should remove the old and replace with the new, or just screw right over the existing? I remember reading, vaguely, that its easier to just remove and replace.

Also, I recall something about removing the old and it having "clips", but i have forgotten which way to pry etc.

I looked under "A pillar gauge install" etc in the seach engine, but had no luck.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Ed
