Fair play, probably the best option and also probably easier to get hold of

UPDATE!!
Dashboard is getting there!
Made the template out of cardboard an old crunchy nut packet worked well :-)
Then coppied it to plastic and cut out the plastic. Of course it didnt fit so out with the file and the sandpaper to make them fit, havent fully finished the centre one but the air vent is done and just needs the window switches cutting out and sealing in...
Got the heat gun out for the centre panel and simply held at the bottom whilst heating the rest up slowly and it just moulded itself to the dash :-)
There you go will have a more complete one tomorrow with switches installed :-)
