Hello Graeme,
I think you'll find the instrument panel didn't change for the later 
model (XS) so should be available from the factory (I shudder to think 
what it might cost, though!)
Some folk have made up their own panels but I stuck to the original as 
most people have done, and have found it has space for all the kit that 
I wanted - which is pretty comprehensive.
It can be a fiddly job removing and refitting the thing unless you make 
some changes. I have mounted the standard "six-pack" of instruments on a 
removable panel and, once this is out of the way I can access all of the 
various connections thro' the gap. This means I can remove the entire 
panel in about 30 - 35 minutes. Replacing it takes a few minutes longer.
The factory offer alloy plates to mount the clocks and things on - so 
it's not a big job to convert the standard set-up.
Good luck with the build - it's well worth the time and effort, believe 
me!
Regards,
Ron Jones.
