I remember going to the local Grundig service center and buying a set of these over the counter. This was back in 1978, but I remember being impressed that they had spare parts for a then 20-year-old machine. The sales person was quite young yet still seemed to know everything about the machine. A long time ago now ...

Anyway, can't really offer much concrete help, except that I think the same clutches are used by the larger machines such as TK819 and TK830 and possibly others as well (easily recognized by the same 3 + 1 + 1 button arrangement) which may extend the range of potential doner machines should that be the only viable optoin.
