I made another panel out of lexan (tough plexiglass). All those ground terminals being wired together in the schematic seems to indicate plastic.
I got the Simpson volt gauge and drilled a 2 3/4" hole with a hole saw to try it out for size. I think it's 1/8" dia larger than the original but I can live with that. I painted the lexan with krylon that's made to paint plastic.
I'm getting some stainless 8-32 flat headed slotted stainless screws to bolt it all together.
