R27 speedometer repair

I am replacing the chrome bezel (chrome trim ring ) on my R27. I have the new ring fitted on the speedo but I don’t know how to keep it in place. The original one was held in place by the bottom edge rolled in to catch under the edge of the top of the housing.
Any ideas would be appreciated !

Thanks, Will
 
Welcome to the forum, Will! Since this is not a forum software issue, a moderator will move this soon to the Vintage area of the forum.

Edited...I was thinking headlight! :doh

Hi Will:

Over the years, I've used two West Speedo shops for work on classic Porsches, VWs and BMW bikes. Both are excellent, although not cheap. One is Palo Alto Speedo, and the other is North Hollywood.
