Default gauge cluster housing

Where can I find a new or used gauge cluster housing for a 1968 El Camino without air conditioning? It is light green in the attachment.

Don't completely remember everything from taking one off, but yes, the nuts attached to the studs have to come off. I think there's a few smaller screws as well, but i'm not sure. The main thing is, work gently when you start to pull the housing out. It should come off very easily once everything is off. On the back, you'll have to disconnect your speedo cable and the large plug that fits into the circut board. I'f you're removing it completely, there'll be a few other smaller things, like the wire running to your shift indicator, conections for your headlight ***, possibly some oof the idiot lights. Just be gentle and don't pull too hard until you're sure everything is disconncted.
