Padded Dashboard

Hi,

Currently my Dash is made of a nice piece of Aluminium, and it doesn't have 19mm radius curve on the bottom edge. So I will have to pad it for the SVA, but I wonder just how little padding will I get away with, the SVA manual is pretty vague about that.

Another thing, any suggestion where I can get material to pad my dash with?

Cheers

Scott

I used some padding about 5mm thick around a 25mm lower dash tube and covered it with vinyl.I used self adhesive neoprene rubber used for industrial fridge lagging, but camping mat material would work well.
