speedo magnets

due to a late change of plan i have mounted my speed sensor on the diff (escort axle).
i tried aralditing the magnets on the pinion flange but the araldite just went runny and dripped off.
is it past its sell by date (a few years old) or should i try a new method

Thick superglue to begin with.

Then epoxy. The insulation tape all the way round.

Not come off yet.





I used to be apathetic but now I just don't care.
