WTB: Parts for electronic speedo conversion

My mechanical speedo has always been unstable at low speeds, and recently it stopped working at all on random occasions. I already know the typical causes for both problems, but I think it's about time that I convert to an electronic speedo instead. 
 
So, does anyone have:
- An electronic speed sensor (part number 83181-12050) for an E153, ideally including the mating plug with enough wire to solder on to?
- A TRD 300km/h electronic speedometer?
 
I don't mind whether the speedometer is on its own or part of a whole cluster. 
I think I would prefer to make the electronic speedometer fit into my existing mechanical cluster, instead of the more typical approach of adapting an electronic cluster to the original wiring loom. 
 
I currently have a TRD 300km/h mechanical speedometer, so it would be nice to replace it with another TRD 300km/h unit in the electronic style. If it proves to be too difficult to track one down, then I could just use a normal 260km/h electronic speedometer instead. I'll try for at least a few weeks to find a TRD unit.
