Pedal box fitment issues, zero after sales from seller 🤬

I've got the bolts off the borrowed column so I've holes I can mark through but still nervous the top has slot adjustments a couple of mm out at top is loads at bottom.
We're pulling and engine from my brothers mk1 cabby at weekend so I'll see if I can get sone ideas off that.
A measurement from the bolt through the bulkhead off column to a point like that might help?

No updates on metal work.
I've decided with all this work into the car it deserves a new wiring loom, so I've set someone on to custom make a brand new loom with a few tweaks but I think it will be worth it.
I've also ordered the finishing touches, the stainless steel bolt kit 🙈
I've narrowed down the wheel choice but the colour is still wide open for suggestions.
Hey im just catching up on the build, looking great btw. Out of interest where did you get the stainless bolts and bits from please? thanks

You say that but there's far more involvement of my Instagram page, one post got 12,000 likes where as on here it gets very little in the way of comments.
