I had one of the later pieces at one time, but could never figure out how it fit. I finally gave up and discarded it and now see that was the correct thing to do. </div>

<div>The early 100 had a welded in bracket that just was turned down with a large hole where a screw, large washer and nut supported the centre of the dash.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The later BN1s and BN2s had a separate bracket that supported the centre of the dash with the same central fixings but the top of the bracket fixed to the same holes as the rear view mirror. The bracket was shaped to allow spire nuts to be fitted. The
mirror then fixed down using course self tap screws that fitted into the spire nuts below</div>

There is a longitudinal support spot welded to the steel scuttle at that point behind the dash. The exact hardware to attach the dash is somewhat of a mystery, at least to me, but it must include a distance piece to avoid denting the dash and some washers because
the hole in the support is too large for the nut on the screw. I used a #10 phillips oval headed machine screw with a stainless steel trim washer and sundry hardware to tighten the assembly and avoid damage to the dash surface. I would be interested to know
how it was originally done.</div>

<div dir="ltr">Can someone please tell me what the hole is above and to the left of the overdrive switch is for. In researching pictures on the internet I see some dash panels have the hole and others do not. Keep in mind I am putting an early two piece dash
in my BN2 just because that is what I have that was given to me by the late Tom Rocke. This is the reason the overdrive switch seems to be in the wrong location for a BN2. The configuration of the early two piece dash has the ignition switch and the overdrive
switch locations swapped. I have seen some pictures of the hole to the right of the overdrive switch with a screw in it, but I have no idea what it bolts to in the back. See picture of recently assembled dash after new paint job.<br>
