I've tried to get individual components for this module and can't find anyone who supplies them anymore. Apparently back in the 70s, when yours was installed, there were quite a few people specializing in supplying small parts. Once the manufacturer stopped using the modules, these guys found other niches to fill. You'll just have to go to the dealer and pay the piper. Sorry.
