Hi Lare,
After I reinstalled the problem screw I noticed that one of my needles is just about to break.

Your photos suggest separating the needle from it's base with an exacto knife. How is the new needle secured to the old base?

Thanks
Bill

LareNurminen Offline Sustaining Member Posts: 305 Thank you received: 163	I just super glue the needles onto the old locations. I Sell the needles already separated from hubs, I also sell the needles as universal needle with hub since a lot of 80s cars and bikes use the same type needle.
