I don't have anything available, but as alternative you could look for less desirable HP equipment from that era that uses the same display. The 3488A might be a candidate.

AFAIR there was some project around for a display replacement for the 3457, that could also work for the 3478 (though a slightly different display).
The 3468 should have the same display too (no GPIB and a battery option instead).

you have a few for low $$  but sometimes the shipping is a killer
