Much appreciated...

This is a rule (tape measure) just laid next to the lock to give an idea of where the cuts need to be.

I'll take a video showing why the hole needs to be bigger than just allowing access to the bar in the pic

Good afternoon Couerdelion , when i installed my Tribute dash i trimmed down the two metal fixings that are attached at right angles to the cross piece tube . From my own experience you are taking on a large job , but when it is finished it will look brilliant , it really transforms the interior , good luck Geoff .

Thanks - it better be worth the effort! :-)

I looked at your dash pictures to try and gauge where to cut.

Do you just have the fixings at the side of the dash or in the centre too?

Good evening , at the moment just at the sides , but may add a couple near the centre to hold down the top edge of the dash , Geoff .

Good, that's same as me - I think it needs bracing in the centre so will look at that in next few weeks.

Thanks
