• That's the thing. I've seen tons of cheap dial indicators on e-bay but I have no way of determining whether they're compatible with the 2066 tool or not.

• I got mine on eBay, but later found that you could also get them here:

  I have never dealt with that company so I have no idea if they are reputable.

• Yep.... I got mine from him about a year ago.   Works fine.  The gauge is an "import" (chinese), but it seems to do exactly what it's supposed to.
  
  Like you, I didn't want to spend a fortune on it, but surprisingly you end up using it more than you think you will.  Trust me.  If you have any VW diesel-type friends and they find out you've got it, it'll be on loan constantly.
