An option to consider if I haven't said this to you before. If you are trimming the dash to fit down over the steering column, how about trimming the dash to allow the steering column to be raised into the dash. This will give more room below by means of a higher steering wheel position. I raised mine by 20mm this way. The GTD column is adjustable fore and aft as well as up and down so no metal work required. I found better steering wheel leverage resulted.
