Need a tweeter for my 15tl's

Does anyone have a spare SL3000 (I think) I can buy? My son decided to put a pencil thru one of my speaker grills and into the tweeter of my left 15TL. I love these speakers, but lack of replacement parts has me thinking about upgrading, but with the new house and other bills, I can't right now. I was hoping someone could rescue me!

(I should mention that this plea is from my brother-in-law (the nephew's dad) to whom I gave my 15 TL's a while back. We can't seem to find a replacement driver anywhere!)

    He's taking the suggestion of the upgrade tweeters. Less than 75 for the pair shipped! Thanks everyone!

    You will be pleasantly surprised on how much better the RD0's sounds over the original SL3000. Much smoother IMHO. Make sure you get the model 198.
