I'd like one to.

The centre panel would appear to be a somewhat unique order for the NZ Army. I haven't found another Military listing for it. There are two similar panels for UK and other forces (without the big dial). The side panels, lower skirts, seals, trims, screws and captive nuts all available new.

I'd like a NZ unit, but would prefer the Australian Army version which allows for more ventilation.

Christmas wish list:

Hand throttle assembly for the V8 and some Nu-Link floor mats.

I'm in Perth Western Australia

Looks like I can get the lights so I might make my own

The hard part is the curved base with folded lip. I don't have the time, otherwise I'd make a wooden jig up from a UK item so the lip can be dressed without distorting the panel.

If you swap both end brackets over, you can have the extra ventilation as per the Australian part. Though you loose some depth. Any switches or gauges have to be closer to centre.
