Both also said that on my 107 body, the re-install gets weird...the cables and wires are very short and there is no room to get a hand behind it and hook up/screw on, what was fairly easy to disconnect. One suggested disconnecting speedo cable from bottom and trying to make some slack can help.
It must be a pretty old 107 to have a speedo cable...most of the later ones used electronics. Yes, generally with cars that had speedo cables there is a place under the hood near the firewall where they are wire-tied in place that if you loosen them there will be more slack in the cable...post the question in the SL section and you might get better responses.
