I tried to order a new one from Pelican. It was only $10. The problem is they can no longer get the part. It's item #3 in the image below.

So who has one and will sell it to me?

Would be interested to know if you still have one.

I ordered one from Paragon. We'll see if they can get one. I also ordered one from Pelican. After 6 weeks - I figured I should call and find out where the part is. They can't get it. Good thing I stopped trying to hold my breath...

I wouldn't bother with that. The plastic grommets in the linkage are not going to last very long if it's taken apart.

I'd go with a full assembly if you can't get the part new. That's what I did for my 83, anyway.

Actually - I do want a new one. So far every place I have tried initially claim they can get one from their vendor. Their vendor it turns out is Porsche. And from what I can gather - Porsche doesn't have any left.

So I am expanding my search to include a used part from listers. Thanks for the link. It's now #4 on my list.

i know auto atlanta kept changing the date for mine, thats one reason i went to my local dealer. they had to oreder it from germany but they never said anything about limited availability. 8139353354 is the number of the dealership i got mine from if you want to give them a call.
