Brian,
The trip meter is connected with a tiny holding pin going through both it
and the rod in the speedometer.
You may be able to wire it or perhaps engineer a paper clip solution, but as
I recall, the trick is keeping things thin. As you press up the knob to
re-set the mileage, there is interference in the body of the speedometer
itself.
Good luck,
Tim
