Cad Files

I am using Solidworks to design my panel. I plan on using Advanced Flight displays but can't get CAD drawings for them. Does anyone know where to get the cad files for these? There website downloads a HTML file when clicking on the CAD link. I have requested it from Advanced Flight but haven't heard anything yet. Is there a library somewhere for avionics and other components that would go on the panel?

Thanks,
Chuck
 
As a SW user you may already know how to do this, but figured I'd share anyway as I'm sitting here with SW myself. If you can at least get the dimensions of the instruments you're using, you can always build your own models. Use the "decal" feature in SW to apply an image to the surface of a part to get the visual attributes you want. Like this guy:
