If you are into that sort of thing it could be arranged!

Suggest you get one here is a few on ebay : http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_odkw=Hea...8&_sacat=0
Wouldn't pay more than $25 for one. If you do get one make sure it has the cable attached to the front (test lead) it will save you the trouble of finding a belly button connector to make up that cable. Don't necessarily need the manual as I think it's on line.
