yeah i got an exim dash! they do fit but you may have to make a few mods.
the fresh air vents need the solid pipe cutting of just about 1cm behind the vents and the carbord type pipe fitted instead
the big on is the problem i had. when you offer the dash up the catch for the glove box fouls the dash rail so this needs to be modified. the best way is to offer the dash up to where you want it to be and mark the area where the catch is on the top dash rail. then carefull use a hack saw to cut the area to be removed and then bend the center bit back. be carefull not to cut too far into the dash rail otherwise you will see the cuts with the dash fitted.
