Dash Radius
The bottom edge of the dash, where your legs might contact, especially in an accident, needs to be a minimum of 19mm.

It means that the bottom edge of the dash has to be curved and the radius of that curve must be no less than 19mm.

Not a broom handle unless yours is 38mm across. 19mm radiuus not diameter!

You can buy GRP SVA dashes for as little as 10 pounds over there if you look around, and as little as 89 pounds for a CF one. Seems to be a good
cost/benefit to me!
