I couldn't find any Chrysler ones.

Here is a set for a Chevrolet Spark:

However, they appear smaller. Anyone with a Spark that can check if they fit?

Simply removing your old ones and pushing the new ones in.

I just ordered a set of those ***** off ebay, we'll see how well they fit when they get here. For $8, it's worth the risk.

If your talking about the Mazda 3 ones I posted pics of no they'll require some modding to work

Guy who owns that car said he had to use a dremel to reshape the D shaft as if you just slide them on the line doesn't match up to what setting its actually on

That's not that big of deal to me. We'll see when they get here what it needs to use them.

Could just cut the stub from the old **** and superglue it onto the back of the new ****. Just get it the right length and there should be no issue. That was my plan, anyway.

I to thought of this however if that glue were to ever fail you would now have a piece stuck in the control unit only thing I can think of is using a tiny carbide on a dremel and remove the metal insert from the old **** and insert to new ****

I got these billet MBA ***** for my camaro a long time ago to go with the silver overlays. Have not gotten around to installing the silver gauge overlays yet.

I don't know which ***** you ordered, but the ones I ordered had a long enough shaft but the hole in it was slightly too large and 180* flipped in the wrong direction.

Sounds like some hot glue might be my friend.

Hot glue might not be stiff enough.
