I cant find any auroras the salvage yards around me. I was hoping to get an original dipstick. That universal one just doesn't look right

there's one on ebay, dipstick, and tube $25.00 or offer +$15.00 shipping, says its for a 1996/1997 seems like kind of a lot for a dipstick/tube.

The plastick tip broke so now i cant tell how much oil i have PM me your location, I'll figure out shipping (priority mail) and we'll have you checking your oil again in no time. lol If it were my dipstick, I'd probably go to Home Depot or a hobby shop and get a small length of brass tubing to crimp onto the dipstick cable so I'd have some idea. |

Was thinking the same thing! Hah, but my guess is it broke off while wiping oil off it
