remove speed sensor from gearbox?

I have a 1994 Toyota Carina E. The speed sensor is broken. I have bought a new one from a Toyota dealer. The problem is I cannot remove old one. It is held onto the top of the gearbox by a long silver part. Is there a knack to getting it out. It just will not budge. Any help would be gratefully appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi i've managed to remove the old speed sensor. You must first spray it with a lot of WD40. Then twist from side to side and finally pull upwards. It is very hard to budge at first but with the help of the WD40 and a lot of pulling it eventually came out and I was able to fit new speed sensor. Hope this helps somebody else.
