Frank,

Have a look for an old battery clock or its mechanism.  I am pretty sure you
could find a needle that you could cut down to size . . look at the second
hands.  Might be worth a shot?

Looking for good used Vanagon tach.  Anyone  ?  I broke one yesterday trying
to do some repair work to the temp  gauge.  The needle pin broke off when
trying to remove the needle.  So  the warning is out, be careful removing
that
needle.

Cheers,
