What year do you need? Do you insist on a new one? I will have one from my 86 real soon.

If you are talking about the black plastic piece. I cleaned an old one up and painted it semi gloss black and it looked like a new one.

If it's the black plastic piece, I got one not too long ago from Classic Parts for around $30 IIRC.
