Default Odometer for '93 Dakota

My odometer went out about two years ago; I have tried all the places I know (except for ordering a $300 dealer part), no luck. Local junkyards, etc., internet search, cannot find one. I am changing oil/filter every few months, about like my former schedule to make sure, but I really miss the odometer.

I'd check eBay auctions, Craig's List for local listings and www.car-parts.comfor salvage yardlistings (search under speedometer).

Don't forget to check out some of the dodge compacks .You will find that some of the cars from the late 80's have the same cluster .And some have the same heater box.

speaking of the cluster does anyone know where I can get a white or any kind of differnent gauge skin? I seen one for a 94 on ebay but 93's have 10 more horsepower so they have top speed of 120 instead of 110

Thanks, y'all have given me some new leads - what I was expecting from this forum! I checked Pull-A-Part, but they don't have mine. I pulled a mini van's odometer, but it was a little different. Maybe I need to try the whole cluster as Injmopar suggested?

I'll let you know what I find, and where...

You don't have to change the whole cluster .It's just easier.I swapped my speedo because I wanted the trip odometer and 125 mph. I changed just the speedo because the car cluster had different gauge options .
