Mystery Bristow whirlwind instrument panel

Dear all,
I bought a ex Bristow Westland Whirlwind helicopter instrument panel.
it came from the International Helicopter Museum in Weston super mare UK.
it would had come from one of the Hulks they have ex Bristow whirlwind,
but identity had been lost .
it’s quite a unique panel so I wonder if it may had been photographed in the past , or someone recognises the set up , which is different from the normal stock instrument panel
used in most whirlwinds, especially the blanking off of the left, with a slot for a huge radio .
any clues to what was fitted, photos etc would really help in its restoration for display .
many thanks in anticipation .

please bare with me, trying to download the one photo from my phone is driving me potty
as it keeps coming up with its too large a photo ( just a photo off my phone).
and being the old technophobe I am. I don’t know how to fix it
