Default Navigation display

I just took delivery of a 2013 Lexus GS 350 all-wheel-drive. I have the luxury package which includes the large display screen in the center of the dash. Unfortunately the plastic cover over the navigation screen is dirty on the inside. Does anyone know how to remove the plastic cover on the center display?

Thank you

I never noticed - I never looked - I never thought about it - because I never needed to know. But now I know - in case I need to know. Thanks!

I believe there are 3 screws at the top. I really did not look close enough to determine what all is removed when the screws are taken out. I'm guessing what can be removed is the frame, which includes the entire surround plus the clear cover that covers the display screen. I guess the surround includes the top that screws to the dash as well as the mat black finish sides and flat bottom piece that butts up against the clear cover of the NAV display screen. Yes?

Has anyone removed this surround piece with the clear cover?

It's missing a few buttons on the steering wheel, where's the LKA and Dynamic Cruise?

I too noticed dust behind the display. I removed the 3 push screws only to find that there is no removable clear cover on the display screen. It appears to be a sealed display.
