Wilkinson VS50 Bridge

Hi guys, just wondering if anyone knows of a shop which might sell the Wilkinson VS50 Bridge. It's for my 1987 Squire Bullet. I've somehow managed to damage the standard bridge on mine and can't get a replacement. So after extensice research, I've discovered that the VS50 will fit, with only minor modification. Any help would be great. Thanks Guys:)

When you say damage what do you mean? i cant understand how you could need a full bridge replacement? Is it one\or some of the saddles or springs that are gone?

Let us know, it mightn't be that severe

From what i understand the squier bullet strat has the usual floating tremolo bridge, right?

Yes, the bullet has the usual floating bridge assembly, but I have somehow broken off one of the tabs:(, as outlined in pic. Now the bridge sits at a slight angle. ie it doesn't line up with the scratchplate.
Plus, I think the Wilkinson trem would look the biz;). Also, with the width between the mounting posts, it's the onlything that would fit.
Thanks

Hey travis. Would this be any good to you? I bought it to put on my old strat but i have just decided to hardtail it instead.

That looks like it might be just the job. Did you not sell it though? And the big question, How much?

No i didnt sell it in the end cos a mate was gonna take it but in the end he traded his strat in. PM me and we can sort out a price mate.
