Don't know. I haven't tried any other sources. I was really surprised
at the poor quality of the TRF item. The biggest problem was that the
cross-section shape was wrong, so it didn't come close to filling the
inset where it fits into the "plinth", or center section of the dash.
Rather than try other sources, I'm going to try to repair the old one
and use it until I can talk to TRF about this one and see what's up.
