I got the speedometer out. How the heck do you open it up. I am trying to fix the odometer.

You need to gently pry the black metal trim piece in many spots so it can be popped over the lip of the gauge body. Then remove the 2 screws and it comes out.

If you take your time and pry the lip away slowly with a small flat blade screwdriver, it will be much easier to pull the whole thing out - don't rush it, and wait until you get the whole lip pried back away from the perimter of the plastic insert.

If you are going to remove the needle, lift it past the stop and mark its location.
