Is this the correct dash, S2 is a 1960 petrol swb. the bottom left and right circles are oil and ignition lights, the choke is under the dash along with starter button and two other knobs, an additional panel has been fitted with various switch's not all are labeled and not sure what works and what doesnt. What is the hole between clocks for.Thanks


 
depending how original you want it, it looks about right to me
that hole between clocks is where my ignition is
 
The steering column indicator unit was originally an optional extra and was simply clamped on.

I fitted one onto my Series II, and it cost me £4.10.6d in real money!! :D
 
Big hole in the centre is supposed to be the combination ignition and lighting switch - or if a Diesel just the lighting as power on was on the Diesel starter switch below the panel.. The indicator switch(that quaint vacuum-delayed Lucas thing!) was on a panel to the driver's side in my 1958 IIA.

As others have said, the auxiliary sockets are supposed to be in the two holes to top left.

From the look of your panel the light switch packed it in and the previous owner couldn't bother to try and source one - so moved the lighting and ignition to an auxiliary panel. Were it my truck I'd have a dig around and see if I could come up with a used one to replace it with - the big empty hole in the panel screams bodge. :)
