79 speedo needle remove and replace
I did a search here and on Willcox's site, I thought I remembered him posting the instructions some time in the past, but I came up empty on both fronts. Can anyone lend some insight as to how to do it? Thanks!

PS, I know how to get to the face of the speedo, that's easy enough.

I've worked on a few speedo's over the years, and found it best using a small slide hammer, to pop off the needle. Sure a place like Harbor Freight tools, can help you out with something. Good idea putting some masking tape on the surrounding face area, before doing anything. When pressing the needle back on, I'll usually put it on loosely, and get it just right, before pressing it all the way.
