I can't remember where I saw it, but somebody was having a problem removing the plastic finger wheel from a 5J dial assembly.  It is important to note that there was an early and a late finger wheel and spider.  The late style is the same as on series 6 and series 7 dials, but the early style, despite appearances, is different, as is the spider.  To remove the early style, locate the tab that is between 6 and 7, and with a knife, slide it to the right.  The finger wheel will come right off.  To install it, just place the finger wheel in position, and slide the tab to the left.  When the finger wheel is off, you will see that the spider is a 2 piece affair, different from the late style, which different.  Hope this helps.
