The outer housing for the speedo is glued on at the base. I was able to free mine up with a knife. You might be able to make up something for the missing knob if you get creative.

I re glued mine and seems to be holding ...but I do need a complete instrument base as mine is well broken but held together by a thin strip of steel plate....

Very common for your knob to break off, i don't think there is a replacement as the unit is supposed to be sealed shut.
How i did mine (open it up) i used a mini gas blowtorch to heat my Stanley knife & slowly melted through on a 45 degree angle (important) if you try & just lever it open all you end up doing is deforming & cracking the outer case it is well & truly glued from factory not to come apart. Once you have made up a new knob & fitted it (making sure it will pass through the hole) Araldite the cover back on & spray it black. I did the same with he tacho as the window had gotten all misty with dust.  Mezo.
