Did you try searching NPD, LMC, Dennis Carpenter, Mac's or any of the places that carry parts for our trucks? Can't say for certain as to the quality, but I know C&G Ford Parts, Mac's, Dennis Carpenter, LMC all have a listing for them.

I've got a cluster out of a 68 that I have no plans for. Not sure if it works or not-
i tested mine and it was dead. i will let you know the results.
You can build one for about $3 or $4. I've made several for different people. Remember to disconnect the positive battery wire before doing ANY welding, or you'll burn up the electronic version IVR.
