ETA just mentioned to Lynn and she just reminded me our tiller pin is a lion, so I would think a tiger exists somewhere.

You would probably have to take it to a blacksmith to get the pin fitted.

 

There are quite a few others on eBay.

You would probably be able to convert to a tiller pin quite easily, using a short section of 10mm rod for the pin. Anyone with a decent set of metric taps and dies (and the ability to use them) would be able to do it in a very short time
