Dual Head Shower Mixer Replacement Problem

[Glassman]

Started ripping out the shower head rail and had to stop.

Current shower:



The thermostat tap is offset, ie, not central to the quadrant shaped enclosure. Want to replace it with a dual head like this one:



Issue is that fixing the thermostat tap to the existing water pipes means the fixed shower will also be to the left of centre as it shares the same axis. Is there a way of fixing the shower head combo to the existing mounts and connecting it to the tap, which would therefore be to the left by a few inches?

Another image to illustrate the problem:

The overhead showerhead will be on a swivel, so you can move it centrally, and you can get standalone shower brackets to put the hose-head whereever you want it.

It just looks a bit aesthetically odd to be off-centre, but there's not much you can do about that.

Probably a better bet is this example from Triton.
