Cut the 2.25" hole and order a grommet for it, Moss 680-840/TRF 605602, on
my '58 the u-joint inspection and dip stick holes are the same. You'll be
glad you did, sure makes life easier.

Subject: [TR] Non-synchro gearbox
My previous TR3s both had all-synchro gearboxes. The small-mouth,
obviously, does not.
I am putting a replacement tunnel in the car and am realizing I may have to
cut a hole for the dipstick, since I don't see a level plug on the side, as
the previous gearboxes had. Any alternative to an ugly big hole in the
tunnel?
