Speedometer Parts Help..???

OK, I have done it. I broke the little needle that holds my speedo pointer. Where can I get me another one...??

Will one work out of any other speedo, like a 110 or 85. Its just a needle and those are a dime a dozen.

I have the 89 IROC-Z with the 145mph.

Nobody will sell me parts becuse i'm not certified.

Please help before the coppers pull me over and ask "Do you know how fast you were going..?" "Here's your sign..!!"

Once again...

Nobody around Memphis, TN will sell me parts. I'm looking for anyone who can get parts in there hometown or who knows of a place to get them.

I have called over 40 people from the interenet and various browzwer searches.

I'm stuck in a bind. I can't justify paying $200 bux or more for a part thats probly on $15bux at most..

I have already purchased another used one. But, It won't hurt to have a spare handy. It would be greatful if you can find the parts list.

Thanks
