dashboard outboard mounting

[feadam]

manual says to connect outer dash to upper hinge, anybody got pictures of how they did this

[j.miller]

Attach the dash to the hoop so that the R&L ends of the hoop show 3/16 above the dash. Cut 2.5 inches off the passenger end of the dash . Hand roll the ends about the curve of a 1Lbs coffee can. Do not attach the ends. ..and here is why. If you mount the dash even with the ends of the hoop the body will sit on the edge of the dash causing body fitment issues and damage to your dash. The driver side of the dash rolls back into the upper foot box space where the passenger side needed to be cut because of the limited space with the bulkhead in place. It's a 3Lbs dash and doesn't 30Lbs of attachment. It can be done without cutting the end of the dash.....but I'm giving you the smart way... da Bat
