Our project Spitfire came to us as the previous owner's unfinished project.
The owner before them had lost the ignition keys so the last owner bought a new lock assembly and "cut" the old lock off. To do this they removed all the under-dash support brackets. What's there now is an ignition switch lying on what's left of the driver's footwell, and a pile of parts sitting below a steering wheel hovering in space.
I've looked in the VB catalog to see the general arrangement of the brackets and clamps. However, it would be very, very, helpful if someone were kind enough to direct me to a picture of (or post a picture of) the installed steering components on a Mk4 Spitfire. As it is, I'm not even really sure how far up or down the column the switch is supposed to be... and there must be a plastic cover for the lock that I am missing. It can't be exactly what it looks like right now!
Thanks in advance for any advice, dimensions, or pictures that you can share.
