I know this is a 993 forum as I am on the 964 forum, but I am hoping someone can help. I have gone through the search of threads but, I need to have a good source for a VDO speedometer needle for a 1990-911? I was replacing the gear and my grandson tipped over the parts bin and stepped on the needle and crushed it. Thank you

If either of the clock hands were the same, I'd send you one.

I called Paul's. He was helpful, he didn't have a needle, but he was helpful, but I needed to send it him. This may the best result. I am going to call the US VDO distributor tomorrow.
Thanks everyone for you input

If he doesn't have a spare needle, why would you send the entire instrument to him?

At Paul's, the reason to send it to him, is that he may be able to use from another brand such Audi. The Audi needle looked very similar to the Porsche needle.
