150mm is the standard for wall mounted showers, 180mm is normal for a bath mounted mixer / shower.
although the pipework for both will normally have a bit of play in it, i would remove the old shower as a temporary measure to see what centres you can achieve with a little flexing of the pipework.

I can't find a wall mounted valve that centres more than 165. Wall is tiled so looking for something with large outlet plates to cover existing holes.
You may need to get some custom ones off amazon/ Ebay to fit over any small flange that comes with it (if at all).
Very common situation.
Can get a chrome-look plastic rectangle even that you drill holes in for pipes coming out. So don't worry too much about that bit.

Hi Paul. Thanks for welcome. In absence of a valve that fits, it's looking like your suggestions are only alternative. I haven't seen any of these items yet. Would appreciate any hint if you spot any. Many thanks for reply.You may need to get some custom ones off amazon/ Ebay to fit over any small flange that comes with it (if at all).

Thanks James. That's what I plan to do. Hoping then to fit a something cheaper and simpler than existing and find a way to cover existing holes.
