Default 1981 Toyota Hilux

Got myself an 81 Toy back in September that was made in the earliest days of the 22R's introduction. Door tag says May 1981 as the manufacture date so its right on the edge.

Im in need of a speedometer. I've been searching but so far no luck. An entire instrument cluster will be okay but I'd prefer just the speedo. It goes up to 85+mph with the maximum being in kph @ 140. Marked increments are every 10mph except for 55 which is in red numbers inside a white box. The bottom of the speedo face reads YAZAKI METER 60MPH=1026rpm. A similar one with the same speed range and same gearing will work. The face is about 4-5 inches across. Any bigger and it probably wont fit in the speedo slot. ATM I have the speedo from a 77 Corolla parts car I got, which goes up to 110mph and 70mph on it is ~60mph road speed cause of slightly different gearing even though the temp one says 1mile=1026rpm.
