T-Series Difference in TD dashes?

I am looking to order a plywood dash frame from Moss, but they have 2 parts listed. One (part 233-510, for TD to #10778) is for a "flat-faced" tach and speedo, and one (part 233-540, for TD from #10779) is for a "dish-faced" tach and speedo. Can anyone tell me what the difference in the two dashboards is? Are the sizes of the holes for the tach and speedo different, or is the whole layout different? I guess I have never noticed different dash cinfigurations between the early and later TD before. Does anyone have pictures of the different ones so I can see the difference? Thanks!

Mine has "dish-faced" gauges, I'll be glad to post photos. I will post some later today/this evening.

I've posted a couple of photos on my TD Blog of my dash, which has dished instruments. I hope this helps. They are at TD Photo Blog Just click on a photo to see it full-sized.

P.S. I know that the instruments and controls in the center section are set-up for a right-hand drive car...I'm not sure why someone did that...I'll be fixing that when I refurbish the dash this winter.
 
Thanks for the pics, martyc. That looks like a standard configuration TD dash to me. By the way, thats a very nice TD that you have. When you get ready to refurbish the dash, let me know. I am working on some items you may be interested in using for the job.

OK, does anyone have pictures of a dash with the "flat-faced" gauges? Then we can finally solve this mystery. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif Thanks for the help, guys!
