Got my windows in also which went great but was a very tricky job to get perfect. Have lots of details on this job if anyone is going to tackle it
Nice job fella, well done.
Hi Rihoman
The pipe position is on the previous page I put up a couple of shots of it there. It seats into the griuve on the metal section then bolt or river through the whole already there for it. If you have two pipe you will be short one 8" section that you can replace with kopecx
The long section of the pipe goes to lower glove box
If you put you hand on the side of the manifold just to the left side of the stereo at around that height you will feel a rubber grommet around 25 mm diameter that will pop out and then stick in the T section of the pipe you have.
Hope this makes sense if you need more help just text or feel free to call me on phone if you wish
Good luck, it's a straight forward job and looks great afterwards

Well you won't have to remove upper parts just stick you hand up there
You won't be able to see it really but you will know when you find it by feel, on the large black square box/manifold

IMHO @Sean O Leary you now become a DIY conversion guru and information centre alongside @Colinlp and @xpfloyd
Ha T6 Dad, it's certainly been a learning curve and going to plan thank God.
Worked in my sound proofing over weekend but was tricky because if the severe hot weather we are getting when I went out to van today it had all come detached! Disaster as it was up perfect, bought some gorilla adhesive and I will apply that later which sticks like Sh*t to a blanket
How do you know?

@Colinlp I'm pretty sure that that comes from the fatherly experiences of @Sean O LearyHow do you know?
Ha absolutely I am trying to rate three wild boys that consume huge amounts of food so I've seen it in ever form
The outer vents just need trimming at the bottom ,the centre fits straight in .
You might have to cut some locating pegs off as the gloss parts have them In a slightly different location to the standard parts .The clock bezel only need trimming at the bottom right hand corner .
Not in Trainspotting though.
Have a chat with pauly and he will sort you with the required parts etc. Only tool you'll need really is a good Stanley knife and a strong hand with an eye for perfect edges
