Anyone know where to buy a trip odo rest knob? Cluster/ odo is from a 89 k5 blazer and the reset knob was missing when I got it.

Look on ebay for an instrument cluster to fit any '89-90 blazer suburban or crew cab with a cable driven speedo in it.

I think what he was suggesting was try to find a cluster cheap on eBay that has the knob you need. I do not know of anyone that sells parts for the clusters.

OK. These clusters dont go cheap enough to buy just for a knob.
I will check a couple places, but if nothing turns up I will make 1.

I was actually thinking of trying a clock knob. I am probably going to put a clock in my cluster anyway, then I will have somthing to compare to.

Actually I have seen some go pretty cheap. Of course they are usually non working, but who cares if the price is right.

I am going to keep a look out for 1. From the pics I have seen, it looks just like a clock knob. I have a better chance of locating a clock know, so I might try that too.
