WTB - LED Oil temp gauge

I'm looking for a diff lock/volt&oil temp panel for my car (88 mb Ur-q) -
well more specifically I need the strip of leds that is used in the oil temp
gauge as one (or more) of the leds in mine has given up. I thought that it
was a dry joint at first, but my multimeter has shown a distinct difference
between the diodes that work and the ones that don't.
The strip is mounted along with a slightly different led strip for the volt
gauge on a circuit board labelled 645 073.
I suspect that the same circuit board (645 073) is used in any unit with
bar-graph type voltage&oil temp gauges.

If anybody in the UK has got one that they don't need or knows of a breakers
yard with one (fat chance?) please contact me.

I'm fed up of not knowing how hot the oil is getting once it passes 90 and I
don't want to change to analogue gauges.

Regards,

Jim Haseltine
