Steve,
If you're looking for an aftermarket voltmeter, try this guy:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/SUNBEAM-TIGER-ALPINE-ROOTES-JAEGER-VOLTMETER/32403=
8689489?hash=3Ditem4b723602d1:g:uygAAOSw5r9dzb4J
He has voltmeters that match the MK1/MK1A and MKII styles perfectly.

Here's the gauge that fried. Unfortunately, I broke off the needle taking t=
he thing apart to see if it could be repaired. I think I'll use this as a h=
ost for a Voltmeter conversion, since I'm not excited about all the power r=
unning through a gauge in the dash anyway. When the shunt opened, the car l=
ost all power at 70 mph in the left lane of the freeway. No more engine, no=
more turn signals, brake lights, anything. Quite exciting. Has anyone conv=
erted one of these, or do you just buy an aftermarket voltmeter and install=
it. I kind of like the idea of it at least appearing factory.
Steve

All the standard spec gauges are british jaeger. The optional clock was smi=
