Susan,


You'll have to be very lucky to find a used one in perfect shape.  I've
peered under quite a few instrument cluster covers and I have yet to find an
instrument cluster with its mounting lugs totally intact.  There is usually enough
of a remnant of the lug to catch it under a larger sized washer.  In one
extreme case, I had to fabricate new lugs from some Micarta.  Those were bulletproof.
