Anyone know where to get this

[blue72k10]

I'm trying to rebuild my Speedo and found this piece broken. Anyone know if someone sells this thing or someone willing to part with one? The old speedometer shop where I came from has long since closed and where I live now there's nothing other than sagebrush.

I just made mine better than original with a piece of plastic coffee can lid using an x-acto knife.

That is a piece of brittle plastic installed on purpose, to keep people from modifying the true mileage and rolling back the speedo.

I just lay the broken pieces on a piece of plastic sheet about the same thickness and spray it lightly with black spray paint. That leaves a perfect pattern to cut out. Keep the spray can far enough away that it doesn't blow the pieces away.

That is a great idea. I never would have thought about doing that.
