I then made a template depicting the curvature of the dash, then using a jigsaw, cut the assembled 1.5 metre long setup in half along its entire length. I then used a heatgun to bend the setup into the curvature of the template.
When I've finished cleaning up the edges, I will remove the dash/consul etc., and urathane/clamp the setup up under the dash.
The demister slits are already in the dash with nice polished stainless steel covers on top. I'm quite happy how it looks at the moment and just hope it works.
The heater with flexible 38mm hose is already fitted in the top of the nearside foot well and the hose. The other end just hangs up in the dash to give the driver some heat. This is the end that will attach to the 90 degree elbow coming out of the demister I made.
Thanks again for your help.

Here are the pics I promised of my Home Made Demister:-
