Reading in the manual to use an auto body instrument tool to aid in removing the instrument bezel.
Is there a better tool to use so as not to scratch anything or is this tool ok?

Almost anything plastic with a slight edge will do. The last time I did this I took a flat-head screw driver and wrapped a soft cloth around it. Took a little pressure, but not too bad. Any Advance Auto or Pep Boys also has a plastic body removal tool for a buck or two.

In my left hand I pinch the bezel between the speedo and fuel gauge. With my right hand I pinch the bezel between the tach and volt meter. Give it a tug, pops right off...

No tools, no damage.

DISCLAIMER: No warranty is expressed or implied. You mileage may vary. In other words, this is how I do it. I was shown this method by another Vision owner... Simple and works like champ.

Thanks for the tips. I started to try and pull the bezel by hand,before I read about the tool.Seems
like it can be done by hand.

Most of the time it can be done by hand. I have had two Visions come in my shop that i had to use a teflon tool that i happen to keep for this type of work and pry it up first. Every now and the clps on the bezel do their job very well and latch in tight.
