I have the same problem, the needle broke in half (i have less than half
actually) and the screw holes to mount it back on are all messed up... don't
have a clue as to what i can do. I have a different speedo in there now but
it has an extra 102,000 miles on it...

Hi Guys:
I just finished working on my instrument cluster. I had cleaned it up
nicely and I was putting it back together when I broke the needle on
the speedometer!! grrr!!! It's still got about 2/3 of the needle but
it looks ridiculous. Is there anything I can do at this point? I
can't imagine it would be possibel to get a replacement needle from
VDO or even be able to disassemble it to the point where I could
replace it.
Man!
-Luke
