    Hi everyone.

    I have a 3rd gen Toyota Prius and I ended up getting some water spots under my climate control display for dumb reasons I'd rather not talk about. I've tried wiping the front surface with a microfiber cloth but I'm 99% sure most of the waterspots are on the other side.

    Is there an easy way to get these water spots out or can I remove the glass panel?

    You really think that's on the other side of the display I mean Priuses are terrariums like the funny comedians in the American motors Pacer I mean it is a literal fish bowl with that there looks like somebody sprayed wheel cleaner or something by mistake from calcifying type of cleaner course I'm probably wrong to get behind that display yeah you're taking that whole mess out you can get it apart down to that is it worth it to you don't know you might be able to get some other droplets of softer liquid back there and it might get the white water spots off or a chemical I can't think right off what I'm thinking of some neutral pH something cleaner if not you can disassemble it down to that far I don't spend that much time looking at that thing so no biggie to me but I understand your pain I really do
