Best replacement turn signal/multifunction stalk/lever?
91 Camaro, can't find a remotely correct looking replacement anywhere for any price, much less one with the correct yellow font. I've been told by my GM parts rep that Dorman is even making them for GM now, but the Dorman reviews on Amazon are poor at best...people are saying that they literally disintegrate after just a few months of use.
Does anyone have a better source for this? Only reason I'm replacing it is my high beams have stopped working -- I can manually push the switch under the dash, and the high beams switch on and off, so I know the under dash switch is good. I tried loosening and adjusting the switch, but my turn signal lever doesn't even move the rod that in the column that's supposed to actuate the switch. Had no problems until I removed the instrument cluster to take the airbag light out. Didn't hear or feel anything break in the process, just went to hit the high beam switch the next day, and nothing happened.
Just says "fits later models". Kinda pricey versus the other ones, but I'm willing to pay up if it's the only one that's going to last and look correct. Photo is tiny, so can't tell anything from that.

Your first ebay link is Modern Day Muscle.
There are small details, like the text that generally aren't the same on the current reproductions, but you should be able to get reasonably close. I put a GM replacement in my Formula a decade ago, and it wasn't an exact match back then. A year or so ago, I put a $14 cheapo in my Iroc, works fine and looks the part. I think before I spent more than $50 for a reproduction that's not exact, I'd look really strongly into buying a cheaper early style multifunction switch, and just shorten the wiring for the later car.
Also keep in mind, the washer tab sleeve comes off. Turn it until the tab on the stalk lines up with the slot and it pulls right off. Assuming that isn't the part you're trying to replace anyway...
