Sorry,
I have no links for this part. The part number is 251 843 876  and is
item 10 found in illustration 107-00 on  the ETKA 5 CD.

Call Camelback VW, Tucson, AZ. The 800 number below wiill take you
directly to the parts department. To whomever you speak, make it known
you are a member of the Vanagon List, and whether or not you  are
calling from a state other than Arizona. It affects the price of things
sometimes ..... like the difference between $240 local and $180 for a
new speedometer  ordered from Alabama.

The number is 1-800-876-5199
