If you manage to do it, I will have to forget about SH3 and switch to SH4 also for playing german side

it will be nice if you upload these pictures !!

Unfortunately, my friend doesn't want to make his pictures public, as he is preparing a book with them and many more. I just got them to collaborate in translating the terms, but you might eventually find more pictures of the TDC around the web, it's in public display in the museum

OK... how about now , I've put Vernier dials for the Bearing (vertical) and Gyro (lower horizontal).

Looks great, but the vernier for bearing probably is not necessary. The place could be used for another dial if needed.
For your reference, this is how the vertical TDC installed in U-505 looks like:

By the way, I need names for all the dials, for TDC and torpedo settings, and I'd rather have them short, because of lack of space. Can someone provide me a complete list?

Here you go (Added in brackets the abreviatures in therminology used in KM books I have seen or simply made by me):
-AOB: GegnerLage (Short: Lage)
-Track Angle: Autreffwinkel (ATreff-W)
-Bearing: Peilung
-Gyro: GA-Winkel
-Range: Schussentfernung (Short: E)
-Speed: Gegnerfahrt (Short: "G-Fahrt" or even "vg")
-Torpedo Speed: Torpedo Geschwindigkeit (Short: T-Geschw. or "vt")
-Salvo Spread: Streuwinkel
These are no longer in the TDC:
-Torpedo Depth: Torpedo Tiefe
-Torpedo Pistol: Torpedo Pistole
-Straight run (for Fat): Geradelauf
-Pattern direction(for Fat): Probably "Richtungsänderung", must check it.
-Single Torpedo Selector: Einzelschuss
-Salvo Torpedo Selector: Salvenschuss
