Default Does anyone know where to find an older VDO tach?

I'm trying to find a VDO 333-944 tach. Problem is, they're a few years old and no one has them anymore. Does anyone know someone who has one?

Or, a comparable other tach. Here's the key features.

- Relatively small size, 3.75"
- 11k (I just need one 9k or higher)
- Built in shift-light
- Rather plain, non-conspicuous-looking
- Cheap (VDO used to sell for ~$115)

I've been checking on eBay with no luck so far. Thanks for any help.

I know no one has read this thread yet, so I'm not being pushy. But, I found a good one. Stewart Warner 114109.

- 3 3/8"
- 10k
- built in shift light
- ~$130 on eBay

Nice.

Well, this was fun talking to myself.

Got the one on eBay. Guess these SW ones normally sell for over $200. Get'em while you can.

Here's the one I got. It was a ridiculous-good deal.

Keep an eye out for them. I didn't see many today on eBay.

This is the one I was trying to get. Except w/ an 11k range.



They always take the good ones away. Understated, clean, simple, nice functions, good price. Now you're looking at almost twice as much for similar ones today.
