I'm gathering parts to restore my '64 cluster, and it is the base model with warning lights. I've been looking for the red and green translucent sheets to replace the originals, and have stuck out so far. Going to wander the aisles at Hobby Lobby soon, but I haven't been able to find anything of this type on their website. Has anyone sourced this stuff recently? Any hints on where to find it now?
