DIY, cheap and easy to do, just buy copper clad(pcb) board and etching fluid, copy what you have, won't be as neat as bespoke one but will do the job.

haven't seen one before so dont know what is populated with, but it may be simple enough to just use wire + sleeving to loom it all up to the connectors....

You'd be far easier and probably cheaper buying 2nd hand set of clocks and stripping them, I'm sure they're the same for all saphs.

Are you on about the flexi pcb on the outside at the rear of the clocks, or the pcb on the tacho ?, think I may have misunderstood.
If it's the flexy one on rear, then same across sierra range(mk1 and mk2 same), apart from some have a rev counter that has pins that go through the holes in the strip where they poke through the rear of the clocks and some have nuts.
