I have the ASR triangle ( and can light it up ) on my '91 SEC and I believe 
this car to be the US version.

Thanks Axel (and Jay) I contacted Performance Products but they don't have 
the Gauge Faces for a Euro 560 SEC. The biggest problem seems to be the ASR 
triangle is only on the Euro version of this car. The guy I spoke to also 
recons the diameter is slightly different on a Euro as well. So no luck 
there. But thanks anyway.

Anyone know where to get the Euro version Gauge Faces? preferably with the 
ASR triangle cut-out and Speedo calibrated in both MPH and KPH. Or if there 
is one with just MPH, I would settle for that right now.

Cheers,
Vance.

Vance,

Have you considered the white gauge face kit from Performance Products?

It is a bit steep at $150 (compared to the $25 ebay paper stencils), but I
think Talbir put them in one of his vehicles and spoke highly of them.

They are available here:

e+Faces

The other alternative would of course be the ebay vendor.

E-190E_W0QQitemZ8035196621QQcategoryZ43952QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

But he does not seem to have the 170 mph. version available anymore.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Axel
