Believe we have established your Clipper is a 42. I don't recall seeing a good photo of the 42 Clipper dash anywhere but possibly a 42 owners manual might have something. You can buy a reprint of the 42 Clipper manual at the PAC store. There is no photo in the 46-7 manual but there is a description of the indicator lights, location and what they do. You might download that manual from here as a stopgap since the dash and function of the indicator lights is identical. The only difference might be in the speedometer needle. I believe the 42 pointer was illuminated whereas the later one was not.

https://www.packardinfo.com/xoops/html/downloads/46DataBook.pdf There is a reprint of the
41 Clipper data book supplement available from Regress Press from their ebay store. That has a photo of the 41 dash but won't be the same dash layout as your 42.
There is an excellent illustration of the 42 switch panel layout in the 46 accessory brochure. As point of fact I suspect that illustration is of the 42 dash because AC was not available postwar so there would not have been a COOLING switch in 46. The switch layout was a bit arbitrary and not all are identical depending on how the car was optioned. I believe the headlight & instrument switch, cigar lighter and map light were the only reasonably consistent positions. Except for the headlight switch due primarily to wire length out of the loom, the cigar lighter and map light due to the size of the holes, the other positions could be changed as desired.
