Hey bro, there is like a metal clip that holds the speedometer cable in place. I don't remember how to exactly take it off but I am sure thats where you are stuck. If you do a search you should be able to find out how to take it off.

Dude if you broke something you might be screwed. First you need to remove the bezel, next there are 2 10mm bolts you need to take out that are where the light bulbs are (seat belts, brake etc) Next I find it easiest to pull down the fuse holder, stick you hand up into the dash and remove the speedo cable (unless you already broke it.) Installation is opposite of removal.
