Hi guys,

I had exactly the same problem you had. I figured seeing as marlin provided a photo showing exactly where the holes were supposed to be in the dash that there was no way i could go wrong so i drilled them before double checking. When i put the dash in i discovered that not only were they nowhere near the pipes coming up from the heater matrix but also that one of the holes is partly obstructed by a bar on the chassis and so i couldn't fit the vent in at all. So this stopped me from just putting in longer pipes from the heater! I've ended up cutting new holes in the correct place and having to fill in the old ones with the bits i cut out & lots of fibreglass and filler! Now i've painted the dash i can't get the finish to look really good so I'm probably going to have to fit some attractive trim to cover up the problem area.
