Getting Thrustmaster replacement pots

I'm hoping you guys can help me out. I have an older Thrustmaster GP1 wheel
and need to replace the steering pot. Of course Thrustmaster doesn't have
the free repair parts anymore. Just got off the phone with Guillemot. They
don't don't support products over a year old. They did say they was working
on repair parts for older products. Just don't know when. Anyway, anybody
know of a second source for potentiometers?  Thanks.

Hi Anthony,
I don't know of an available source for you, but it might help you to
know that the pots in the GP1 are: 24ml 250k linear pots..
I can't get 250k pots that will fit the GP1 here in Australia, so i
replaced them all with: 24ml 100k linear pots, which should be
available from any basic electronics store in you neighbourhood..
Cheers,
Ron
