I did a search for them a while ago but I could only find them for the old Granada Scorpio.
If you do find them please let me know.

I couldn’t find any either. I did start to draw some up a while ago but the problem was going to be the backlighting, although when I did a mock up with an old cluster I didn’t really like the side dials in white so I was toying with leaving the side dials black along with all the bits that have warning lights & just having the speedo/revcounter white with front illumination coming in through the top of the housing.
I always think the dials look a bit crooked & I like the 30mph to be marked & horizontal so I re arranged them slightly which would mean moving the stops.
If you want to cut out a higher res version (not the original resolution as it gets resized by photobucket) to see if you really like the idea see here:

The side dials on this are just the inverted scans so not white.
An inverted scan of the original here:

Like a lot of things the project got put to one side
