Every one was out of stock for a while, but I got mine in February from West Coast Metric. Their web site said out of stock, but when I called them they said they had them. Received soon after. Double check the solder of the wire before you install it - May need reinforcing ? You may also need the Anti rattle bushing ? Or maybe thats all you need ? When I pulled mine apart the anti rattle bushing had been inserted the wrong way round by the PO, so it wasn't even in position to prevent rattles !! Unbelievable.
