Larry, funny you mentioned that as I noticed the same when I compared it to pictures I've compiled and I've spent the past few days thinking about whether I wanted one. The drop center seems to be shifted toward the driver on original dashes I've seen. It looks like the gauges on this dash (drilled version) may be in the same place in space, just with the drop center, "centered". Either way, instead of worrying about that I came to the conclusion that I can't replicate this piece as well as the Kirkham's and I can drill and / or trim to suit my taste and car. It also ocurred to me that I might be obsessing about things that don't matter all that much.
