What body style? E bodies it's easier to go through the dash, then 68-70 B bodies.

I used a junk dash pad cut big to go around the bars then covered it with a dash cap trimmed to fit.

After trimming the cowl and welded them in i reattached the cut outs to tie the bars to the cowl.

I had to cut the dash holes big in order to tilt the dash up into position.

Material was added to the trim molding to cover the hole. I welded brake line tubing to form a rolled edge.

Putting the windshield in was not as bad as I thought with the bars through the dash.

Some really great ideas/photos in this thread!

Really wished my ex-chassis guy had paid attention after I delivered a windshield to him to be sure the cage could be put as far forward as possible.
