Yes, Glen, 2459 had a street dash in it. See the following thread that has several photos of the cockpit:

My late father owned 2 cobras CSX2119 and raced CSX2459

I purchased a street dash for the project from Drew Serb. It is a nice piece, but does not fit the Unique, as the column is in a slightly different spot. Will need to work that out over time. May just go with the stock FIA dash in the short term, so I can get to driving, and leave that as an upgrade project. I will be using a temporary engine, as well... need to save some stamps for the Weber setup!

Paul, do the changes to the dash panel now and change it to what you really want. Much easier now than having to remove a dash later and fit another one.
If you have a good reason to mod the street dash (which you do), the incentive to accomodate the changes is much stronger now than it might be further down the track.

Cheers!
Glen
