Mk2 or MK3 dash?
Can't find your grey car, only the red one...
EDIT: found it, it's a MK3, but some early MK3 models still have the MK2 dash..
this is MK3 dash with aircon:
or instead of the spacer, you can use 2 shorter bolts instead of 1 long one.
i would do either a 2 bolt setup or a long bolt with spacer on that, not long bolt without spacer. the big plate on that pic is castaluminium so if you don't fill up the gap between the bolts it will break, possibly during assembly but mostlikely under driving.

And another thing: have you ever heard anything of that would-maybe-fit Smart condensor that you were talking about some time ago?
Without it, you're always squashing the side brackets together at the top. It's not 100% secure that way ... I suppose I could go to a hardware store, but to be sure I'd need to remove the top screw and I don't really want to do that
