One of our sponsors sells them. You have some options with them on how you want the configuration and they will match your paint color if you provide a sample.

On the page from Riff Raff that was posted by Tim that you quoted above the price will adjust as you select the various switch counts and functions as well as other options. You will only get what you want once you decide, but basically it is the F-650 dash with either 3,6 or 9 switches (very high quality carling units) and a hole or 2 for gauges if you choose. Clay does great work from all reports I've read and here he is using top of the line components and color matching.
If you want to roll your own, then Auto Nation White Bear Lake Ford Parts (formerly Tousley) has the part #4C4Z7004302BA for $59.60 PANEL ASY - INSTRUMENT TRIM | Genuine Ford | 4C4Z-7004302-BA But then you have to do all of the cutting, switch selection and custom engraving, wiring and color match painting.
I am in the process of building mine currently and have been for quite some time (9 switches, 2 gauges, brake controller and 2 110V outlets), you have to weigh your time and talents vs when and how well done you want the dash.

This is on my list right now to do. When we place the order can we request colors for the switches and labels? I see in you pic there is some labels.
I'm looking at doing six switches, 3 for lighting, one for exhaust brake and the other 2 will be question marks so it would be nice to have some different colors representing their function.

Does anyone have a picture of what the supplied wiring harness would look like from Riff Raff to see if it is worth while or not?
Even a picture of the backside of the dash prior to install?

My lower F650 dash has been sitting in a box for about 2 years.
