Default Steering Position sensor parts

We have recently purchased a 2000 C5 that has the steering position sensor faulting. from what i can find this part is discontinued. What are my options? i have found a 2nd hand one that we could purchase for big money but with that im unsure how long it will actually last.
I understand that this would have been discussed here a number of times but just looking for 100% correct info and where to go from here.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Your understanding is the same as mine. There are no options to buy a reasonably-priced new or otherwise unit.

I designed a unique device to manipulate the '01-'04 SWPS signal (for cars modified with angle kits), and have often wondered if it could be adapted to the earlier year C5s so that the '01-'04 SWPS could effectively be made to work. Doesn't help you of course, just vaporware at this point!
