Go to Chief. Look at some full scale cockpit panels. Save it as file and put it in Powerpoint. Measure the length of your model cockpit area and try to get it the same size and print in B/W low res to save on ink. Then test fit it. Usually takes 3 tries for me to get it right. Then print it out on good quality color paper and glue in place!
FREEEEEEEEE! that way Oh, and you can modify it as well with Plane names, IMAC routines, magazines, modify colors etc etc etc

Rich, you have several options. What sweetie says is definitely one way.
You can also go to the Extreme Flight Website, and they sell them ready to install.
Or, you can also go to B&E website, they sell the vinyl stickers, and they sell instrument panel stickers.
You can also make the instrument panel out of balsa, takes some time, but it can be very light, or you can make it out of foam. Lots of options.
let me see if i can post some pictures.
You can use this one as well, just print it, and adjust the size as sweet-pea mentioned:
here is how i made one out of foam, balsa sheeting, and the vinyl sticker from B&E graphics....
this is almost ready....
i was concerned that the vinyl could come off over time, so i made a plexiglass cover for it.
