I have been there and done that and it takes ages to get it right and even longer to run custom ducting for the air vents and stuff. Would not do it again. You will have to cut lots of dash front the windscreen and I used the point where the uncut sides meet the door seals as a permanent guide to alignment. Dont try to marry the dash to the center tunnel as the dash will sit about 3 inches higher so I mated the mk2 gear lever surround to the bottom of the dash and it looked spot on. You will also have to deal with the fact that the dash is wider and interfears with the door cards.

It was a vr conversion before the structure Started needing welding work for each MOT and I gave up and bought the corrado.

 

The dash is too wide period. You will need to move the mirror moves back about 2 inches and sort out some way if modifying the door cards to allow for the width. I cut mine and made up recessed door cards but never really got it spot on.
