    And while the bezel is off you can also dip the needle end in some new red paint. And you can clean the inside of the glass as well.

    I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

            Very slowly.

              And if you spin the cable too fast and max out the speedo for too long you may possibly damage the nylon gears in there...i dont suggest that method of cranking it over.

                  well its not really cracking it.. the whole process tool about 30mins thats doing the prying method the dremel and cutting it open will be quicker and seal things up better when your done.. 6 of one 1/2 dozen to another

                    And you will for sure have to clean every inch of the insides using the dremel. As you cut thru the plastic tiny fragments are gonna get into every knook and cranny..It may take longer to pry the crimp up, but way less internal mess to deal with also.

                      You can apply a thin bead of silicone around the rim of the cases to seal the trim and the glass up again and then recrimp the trim into place.

                        ive taken my old one apart by uncrimping it, it wasn't to bed, but the dremel seam to be cleaner if you are more careful with it
