Question Fix 91' dash needles.... in Canada?

Anywhere in Ontario... or even Canada to get all 4 needles repaired?

( Do the gas and temp needles go too? Or just the speedo/tach? )

Only options I can find are a couple auctions on Ebay in the USA which will be OK unless anyone knows anywhere in Canada?

Thanks

Hey there,
I found BBA-Reman through Ebay here in the US. I researched them thoroughly, and ended finding out that they have several offices in pretty much every country. I ended up sending my cluster to them, and for $80.00, they fixed all of my dimming needles, my dead/slow fuel gauge, and my light flickering off problem, with a lifetime warranty. I would recommend them in a heartbeat. They repaired everything the same day they received it, and had it shipping back that same day.

Ebay Item number: 170547540399

Says its from the UK too.

I've emailed Lextech and MrWizard so far

Hey there.
I just looked up the current U.S. Ebay listing which is auction# 230696517397 for $80.00
Just so you know, they also had noted on my work order, that they had even checked for the problem of "Sticking" needles, which were not present. They checked for all of the known common issues to repair.
I just found the Canada auction, It is by bba-reman-ca for item# 180668865328, but it shows $265.00 canadian. I don't know the exchange rate or shipping, etc... but I would think the U.S. one is probably your best bet. Let me know.

Thanks for the info.

They have actually removed Canada from the shipping list in the US one.... and it says they dont ship to Canada... Hmmm. I will email and ask why there is such a huge price difference...

I will report back

Found an auction that will fix the speedo/rpm gauge for a nice price.

What I am wondering is should I get the temp/gas needles fixed too? I never seem to see them in pictures going bad.

If anyone could let me know if they know of, or if they have had their own temp/gas needles burn out on the ends too?

Thanks again
