Hey there was putting the dash together a few weeks ago and managed to break the speedo needle off so it's only about a half an inch long. It's a 79 bu with just the basic speedo and idiot lights. Are there any other cars that would swap across I am having a really difficult time locating another malibu for a replacment speedo. I would like to get this figured out as all I am waiting on now is to get my gears and the car is on the road and I don't really feel like using my gps to gauge my speed. Thanks for your time

Carefully super glue it back together? I've never done it but maybe it's worth a try.

You think a toothpick would work? I was considering it. I would glue it back together but it shattered it's weird 32 year old plastic would be so brittle ](*,)

Where did you end up on this. I broke mine years ago, super glued it back together and then I took it to the track and broke it again.
