Re: Dash mtgs
Any way you seem fit, Mine is not mounted at all, but my dash is not 100% standard and has some wood in it to make it stiffer , its on my list of things to lighten as its heavy

Re: Dash mtgs
I pop-riveted it through the scuttle below the clams rear edge! So if i need to take it out its not to much work!

Re: Dash mtgs
The original instructions were to bolt it through the scuttle with a couple of spreader washers -- hidden under the back edge of the bonnet moulding. Mine's just wedged either side of the sheet metal lip on the tub which isn't particularly attractive but I can't get it out now as its trapped behind the front legs of the rollcage.
