The firewall and tunnel are structurally the same.
There are a few mior differences between the MKII and the 1500 tunnel.
If you are going as far as cutting one to fit the other, the differences
should be no problem for you.
The 1500 has a bump where the MKII did not, also if you are in the inner
footwell panel, make sure you KEEP the access hole for the slave
cylinder on the MKII, later 1500s did not have this hole.
Now This sounds like a project!
