Just slip the straw over the leftover stub of the needle and then slip this onto the remains of the needle in the speedo case.
Took a lot of trial and error to get the length of the straw just right...I also put a small dab of glue in each end of the straw to hold it all together.
If yours is a clean break at the speedo with no stub, then I can't help. | | |
