I am on the look out for an assistant panel or maybe even just the cable. I cant justify spending much for one at this point but if you have one that you are willing to let go of please let me know and maybe we can work something out.
make offers to the eBay sellers, the ones that have been sitting out there a few years will usually make a deal. I got a brand new one still in box for $125 which the seller had listed twice as much.
