Clark's Garage -- 924,
944,968 Porsche This is the proper way to removal the speedometer needle:
{This is the trickiest part of the job. The needle is pressed onto a shaft that is extremely thin. It feels like a pretty tough metal, but you have to be careful here. Do not pull straight up. Do not put any torque on the shaft. If you have a needle stop, gently lift the needle above the stop and rotate the speedometer needle counter clockwise until it hits a stop point. Gently continue to rotate the needle while lifting up gently at the same time. The friction is all that is holding the needle to the shaft. Keep turning and prying until the needle comes off. Do not force it. I don't know that that shaft assembly is user replaceable.}
