i had the ones for without rev counter and they were a nightmare!!

tried a hot glue gun at first but couldnt line it up before the glue set and it wasnt very strong, then i used super glue and it worked better but on the way to manc one time, hit a few pot holes and they all came off..

done them now with super glue but if they come off that sounds like a good option
