broken cluster or needle

Just bought a truck and the needle/pointer is broken on the tip. Anyone have a spare or old cluster the don't need? This is for a 89-95 truck though I'm sure the needles are the same.

Smile Broken cluster or needle

I have had the same issue and trust me, buying a used one has been a mistake. Most of the time they have been sitting and what ever lube they use is dry to the point where the already brittle plastic needle usually breaks. A little trick that has worked pretty will for me is to take off the second hand from an inexpensive battery wall clock, trim it down and super glue it to what is left of the needle on your speedo. These hands are usually made out of very light aluminum and work well, but FYI the only down side is they won't show up in the dark so it would have to be painted with glow in the dark paint. Hope this helps.
