What price range am I looking at? 70-200 used?
Also are they easy to fit?
Thanks!
Edit;
I think it may just be the stalk. The rest is working fine?

well sorry to tell you that you can't change the stalk itself,it's a complete unit,and it ranges between 50-80 used,depends on the options that it got,such as trip computer,auto lights,auto wiper.
It's 8/10 for a DIY job because you have to be careful when taking out the steering wheel,and the com2000 unit,specially if u have an ESP

How old is your car? The early indicator stalks are easy to remove and fix. Basically over a period of time the inside of the switch fills with copper filing from the switch action. Remove the plastic steering column plastic shroud, disconnect switch, remove. If I recall correctly one or two screws and the switch comes apart. Before you put it back together add a little silicon grease.
My daughters 2000 (W reg) had the same problem. I stripped and cleaned the switch and 3 years later it is still working perfectly.
Not sure what year they went to com2000 as those are, as above, more difficult.
