The present invention provides a bezel attachment configuration for securing a detachable bezel to a metal chassis. The bezel attachment mechanism preferably includes the combination of a modified bezel post extending from and integral to the plastic body of the bezel and a bezel snap that is attached to the post. The post includes at least a first region and a second region, where the cross-sectional area of the second region is less than the cross-sectional area of the first region. The difference in cross-sectional areas creates a lip between the first region and the second region that the bezel snap catches on if moved in an upward direction towards the top of the bezel post. The lip of the post acts as a barrier to further movement of the bezel snap, thus providing a secure attachment of the bezel snap to the bezel. The secure bezel snap is inserted into an opening in the metal chassis.
