Default upgrading gauge bezels

I currently have chrome bezels on the H2x dash gauges. I would like to update the bezels. I see great lake skipper has a few on ebay, do these slip over, behind or under the factory gauges. All suggestions, assistance is appeciated.

The slip behind them after you take the gauge out & disconnect all the wires.

removing the gauges is not that bad, its just time consuming, just do one at a time and take a pic of the wiring before you remove it, its the only way to remove existing and replace with the purple

Thanks for help guys,, next question is do you order by gauge size or size of the gauge and existing chrome bezel. Example gauge itself measures 2" & with the bezel ring it measures app 2 1/4" only see sizes for 2 1/16" then 2 3/8.. Same as tach and speedo about 3 1/8" guage and 3 7/8" with bezel.. bezel is not removable.

2" gauge would use the 2 1/16" bezel.
