I'm in the process of bringing my odometer back to life. I have read the Pelican article and was trying to remove the retaining ring as described...small screwdriver...prying lip of ring... So far, no shot in hell. The space between the ring and the body is so tight that even my smallest screwdriver doesn't fit "in" that gap. I can't even seem to get enough of a bite to push outward against the lip of that ring. Just wondering if anybody here found any magic for getting this done. Thanks in advance.
