Location: Culemborg, The Netherlands		I want to fit a Mk2 dash in a Mk1 Metro together with the complete wiring loom.
Now I have noticed that the bulkheads are different and the problem is that I don't have a Mk2 bulkhead anymore. So now I can't see the differences anymore.
Does anyone have good detailed pictures of a Mk2 bulkhead??

And how is the Mk3 bulkhead compared to the Mk2 bulkhead?
Because I also have a 1992 Mk3 metro for the complete interior so maybe I can compare this one.

Location: Dudley, Midlands		There have been pics of stripped engine bays in Members Journals.
My Mk2 is on the road, so much of the bulkhead is covered...
but if you can post a pic of your Mk1 bulkhead...
I can try to look around things to play 'spot the difference'!?
Although a search through journals on here will probably prove more useful to you.

Won't any pressings or cut-outs be visible from the other side though?
Isn't it only a single skin panel?

that's true, although what about the beam that the radio [at least] rests on?

If it helps, 1990 mk3 interior bulkhead;

When i got my Mk1... I really missed my Mk2 dash!!
Even though it had been 15yrs since I'd even seen it... it just felt wrong!?
