Here is another from left field. The TPS is a 5k ohm 1/4 turn pot, so any 20k full turn or 10k 1/2 turn linear pot, like a stereo tone or balance control will work. All you need is to fabricate a mount, some of the newer miniature pot are sealed.

Check with this guy,,,, or guys like him. Search eBay for a YOUR model parts car and then start writing to each seller asking if they have it...
