Was in the local car spares shop today to get some bulbs for the rear lights, and noticed they had emergency wing mirror glass, which is infact thick sticky mirror film that you cut to shape and stick over your smashed glass, and that would be just great for the cluster reflectors £3.49 for enough to do 3 clusters, bargain
Have you got a name of it

very similar, it would do the job im sure
 
some great info here thanks everyone for your links and suggestions.

I finished my lights and put the dash back last week but keep forgetting to go out to the car to check them out at night time so I still don't know how sucessful I have been .
One interesting thing that I was curious about. One side of the clear plastic strips sits on black plastic so presumably only one side is reflective ? Does the covering need to be reflective at all ? as it presumably reflects back onto the black plastic of the instrument pod which is non reflective.

I tested two of the strips when I had finished covering them with baco foil and tape and to be honest I thought that the remaining uncovered clear plastic strip passed more light into the instrument binacle than the two that were covered.....
