The tube is press fit in the case. The rep tube needs to be drilled out and the new tube glued in. It is best to use some type of glue that expands. I used a brand called Gorilla glue that is available in the US. It make a very strong bond.

Regular panny straps just do not work due to the larger hole size to accommodate the tubes. Where can I buy correct straps for that fit the wire lugs?
Thanks.
