Forgive my ignorance, but what's the difference between a single demister dash and a twin one? Would it be possible to just cut away the bit that covers up the LH demister on a later one?

That's a good question. The 74 - 77 Dash is kinda like a LHD one where the dash top plastic lays flat on the non demister side, whereas the 77 - 90 RHD dash sits proud of the supporting metalwork all the way across to accomodate the 2nd demister.
Its one of those things you don't notice until you try and replace busted parts and you have a "eh? WTF?" head scratch moment.
There's a chap in 2CVGB who has just had a 1974 car restored and has put some pics on the 2CVGB forum. Car looks lovely in Vert Tuileries with the brown interior. There is a really good web site called Les Filles de forest, about the Belgian built 2CV with some pictures.
