Default Master Brake Cylinder

Does anyone know of a shop that will rebuild an SC430 Master Brake Cylinder that has a small leak. I have replaced it but if I can get the original one repaired I could sell it and give someone a good deal. The shop needs to be familiar with this unit since its so specialized.
Thanks-theazz

i still have my original too, if I could rebuild it, I would and keep it. These are going become harder to find due to the production numbers dropping rapidly after the first few years.
if I remember correctly, a replacement from Lexus is about $1100.

i never realized how many models Used this MC
