What are folks doing these days to replace the climate control vacuum actuators when they go bad?

I'm looking for a good source of them (preferably) or replacement ideas (not digging that). My mechanic tells me two of the vacuum actuators in the dash need replacing. One for mixing hot/cold air, and he suspects the other brings in outside air (he didn't bother tracking it down).

While he was in there, he replaced the three that direct air to floor/dash/defrost with ones I bought many months ago on Ebay. I thought I was getting a complete set, but alas only three of the five were in the box. Now my Ebay sources seemed to have dried up... :frown:

Thanks,
Steve

Black Dragon stopped carrying Z31 parts. MSA may carry them, but chances are these are Nissan only parts. This means you can probably get them cheaper at the dealership. Or search e-bay, junkyards, or any of the used Z31 parts suppliers.
