For a quick (but incomplete) answer here's a little list. (I am also sending a
copy of this to the Spridget List in case
others might find this info helpful.)

This list is by no means complete and a few of the sources phones or addresses
could be out of date. I have no personal or
financial relationship with any of them and make no guarantees as to your
satisfaction with any of them.
I can tell you this however, you are going to speak with someone who is more
than just an order-taker and someone who will
be there to give you an educated answer either at the time of order or after
you receive the part.
There are also other sources for parts in Britain. Don't be afraid to order
from a parts house across the pond. I did it
regularly (and easily) in the early 80's and with the internet it's as simple
as ordering over here. If you want a good idea
of what the parts houses have available "over there" just go to one of your
Barnes & Noble magazine stands and grab a copy
of one of the Mini magazines.
There are other gauge rebuilders and other wiring harness sources and other
listers hopefully will add to this short list as
well.
Hope this helps.
