Osprey has them all and can't get much wrong.
Only the cuirassier were 'redesignated' a few more colour facings in__[look up] , previous period they were only 'scarlet and jonquille', otherwise the dragoons and chasseurs were the same.

Yes thats them; and you get the benefit of adding 'musicians' in all sorts of fanciful colours because of the incorporation of the various regiments who were disbanded themselves (18th- 26th? Cavalry), but incorporated into building larger units for the designated new 'reserve' Cuirassiers. Like my 12th Cuirassiers:-
