The fuse box cover and the landing gear / flap indicator cover have become brittle with age and have cracked or have pieces missing. Where can I find these two items either new or used? Savage yards?

I was googling and I don't think plane plastics has the part.  eBay didn't have them.  An old thread talked about doing an owner made part

Just replaced my trim/flap indicator. Lasar has them for $135. Get your Dremel tool out.....youl'll need to do lots of trimming. I used my original metal placard.

Then use a new placard for your owner produced part.

Hey, your flap and trim position indicators are curved! Mine are horizontal bars that move straight up and down. And without printing the picture and playing with scissors, I'm not sure the Fuel Drain Valve arcs will fit around the outside of the Fuel Selector, either.

Where did you find this nice selection of placards? The one for Emergency Gear Extension is in pretty bad shape (too much sweaty IFR training a couple of years ago), and I'd really like to get one that is legible. I know the text (have a copy somewhere), but would love one that will hold up to sweaty knees flying in the Deep South. None of my placards are metal, except maybe the hat rack 10-pounder.

Plane Plastics has them, I installed all 4 pieces that go around the front wheel well (flap/trim indicator) on my 65 E, just give them a call not all their products are listed.
