Default Electronic Ignition for Mk2 RS2000

Looking to buy a Mk2 RS2000 next week
Has got brandnew points & HT leads fitted, but i want to change it to Electronic ignition.
Does anyone on here have one for sale, or know where i can purchase a new one..
Also how much do these cost..
Thanks,
Steve

You need to rob the bits of an early pinto power Sierra or Granada, it will cost a fortune to buy the bits new.
