The heat generated in my 58 100/6 cabin is unbearable. I see Moss sell a 5 piece heat shield kit, however I cannot tell if it can be fitted when the car has all the engine and ancillaries fitted
Has anyone fitted one of these and if so, how difficult is it in a finished running car?

I removed my old shields . Bought a new set clad the new ones in alloy heat shield because I like the look. I refitted them too all with the car fully built. I used 1/4 drive tooling and lost a lot of skin. ...I also swore a lot and at one stage resorted to drink.....it did all go back in the end. The worst parts were those on the sides of the transmission tunnel.

I haven't done it, but I think it would be doable. Note Moss also sells 'supplemental' heat shields which should be easily fitted and may work better than the original type:
