Siggy Manx measurement/dimension needed...

I just got hold of a Siggy Manx dashboard frame, but I'm missing the oval part that the actual column goes through; it's to the right of center of this photo, the oval piece with the big hole in the middle and the smaller holes at either side...

Could anyone let me know the size of the center hole? I'm guessing it's larger than the size of the column to take one of the rubber grommets in the photo maybe? Am I correct to assume that these are Beetle grommets from where the column goes through the bulkhead? Also would anyone have a spare wheel mounting bracket that they didn't use that they may like to sell? Ta guys...

David, Yes, the rubber grommets are the stock VW ones. My siggy Manx is assembled so I can't measure the I.D. on the flange but its approximately the same as the O.D. of the grommet, down in the grove, if you know what I mean. I believe the flange is just an exhaust pipe flange.

I guessed as much, that's what I was planning to use to save making one from scratch. Thanks.

David, this is one of two collars that came with my siggy kit.

David, these are drawings with measurements of the flanges which came with my siggy kit. Hope they are helpful.

Brilliant, just what I needed Roger.
