I'd be interested to know how that dash conversion went. Coiler dashes are lovely, but they weren't designed for folding windscreens. I've been in a soft top that was coil dash converted and it was terribly rattly and wobbly - clearly some of the attachment points are different.

pretty sure you have to do your own brackets up, it's usually pretty easy to improve factory mounting arrangements

It took me 11 hours start to finish. The coily dash is wider so it wraps around the big windscreen clips at the two sides. I used these as mounts for the coily dash. The metal brackets under the windscreen will need to be chopped off (will make sense when you pull your dash out). The top middle and drivers side mounting holes will line up. You can use leaf or coil heater controls. The mounting hole behind the cigarette lighter will line up. I swapped in a coily bonnet cable as well as they are mounted differently. Also used a coily steering wheel and steering column shroud. Shroud had to be cut abit so the washer jets could work and steering coloumn spaced down. As for wiring the two dashes are completley different but with patience you can just trace each wire on the back of each dash facia. It's definatley worth it it transformed my zook inside
