Well since I had the assistance of a skilled friend it was fairly easy
I can weld but I didn't trust myself on this one.
Actually took him a week or so with a lot of measuring before cutting started.
You can see that the angles of the dash are slightly different when comparing LH and RH sides.
Some filler panels were made up to make the gauge "pod" blend into the dash. (Is "blend" the right word?)

Some people make the dash out of fibreglass when converting from LH to RH, but I am lucky to have a skilled friend so my dash is all steel.
