There was a thread recently. Try putting the word bezel in the search box in the upper right. There should be references to those posts on the first page. HTH.

Hi , I replaced mine by using a small hammer wooden handle and holding the speedo in a strong grip I rolled the lip of the bezel under , its not easy and you need a strong wrist but it is possible ...you don't have to get the lip flat to the case only enough to compress the the rubber seal and glass down so water will not enter . the larger rubber washer that sits under the bezel when clamped to the headlamp covers any wrinkling of the crimping. Worked for me with great results.
