Seems to be a little confusion so I'll explain what I did. Sam is correct, saying that I cut the top off the Cyclops dash. I cut everything off the top and sides leaving only the surface area that matches the top of the tower. Then, I cut the center out of the 82 series dash leaving just a "horseshoe". The 82 series "horseshoe" is just overlaid on the face of the Cyclops dash. It fits well enough that I don't think I will trim either dash to get a flush fit.
I cut the bottom portion off the Cyclops dash to make everything fit due to the tower modification. It had to be shortened to get the overall height to match the 82 series hardware.
Hope this helps. Tim

Seems like a good trade off. I can put five Cubs where one car sat and there are no titles or license to fool with!
