And 2 different patterns:

I used the pattern with vents (however i put speakers there instead). A fair amount of sanding was required to make it fit, but i would still suggest making it larger and then going from there.
I wasn't making a complete dash, I more so wanted something to mount my CD player/speakers in, so i split it into 2 and it goes on either side of my speedo.
I also needed to take some off the lower rail edge abover the heater to accomodate the hump there.
This is how it turned out
