Hello Elliot.
You should try (bjaircraft.com) also try Margaret Earnshaw at (spares@airsam.clara.net) They have lots of parts for all british warbirds. most of them are new hence the cost.
I will keep on the lookout for anything that could help your project. Do you have photos of these instruments that I can go by?
Cheers.
Peter

Thanks for the message... Here is a link to a great site on the Battle of Britain. Our blind flying panel will be identical to the one in this spit.

Hi everyone...
We are after the following to complete a blind flying panel for the Whitley... Early war spec please (circa June 1940). They need not necessarily work - but it would be nice!
Art horizon
Climb/descent
ASI (in MPH)
Altimeter
Will also consider anyhting else anyone has going spare...
Cheers,
