In the past I have managed to carefully undo the cone with a hammer and centre punch but I might have been lucky on the tightness.

I assume the angle grinder did the job. They are nasty things but effective at destroying things.

The Angle grinder sorted it in 2mins !
I removed the speedo to view the job or it would have been a dashboard out job; My XXXL hands dont help me in jobs like these ooo

Well done. I would have been scared witless with an angle grinder inside the car.

2hrs on your knees with a hacksaw blade makes you more determined. I had to change the wiring harness connections as they see soldered direct onto the rear of the original switch. That took ages through the speedo hole !
Whole job took nearly 5hrs. I had to hot wire the car to get it out of the lock up and back to my home where I can get the power tools out
All in all not an easy job for me ! (Paddy hands !)
