Side Trim Radius
the_big_1 - 26/6/20 at 07:08 AM

Hi Guys,

We all know the radius edges must be in the car facing forward, dash, switches etc but is there any requirement for the sides?
Looking to use the below alone the sides and rear quarters.

I made these, quite easy to make and they are nice and soft for where your elbow should be occasionally bouncing up and down depending on your suspension.

remember iva is a minimum requirement,
think of it another way, if you arm were resting on it and some unfortunate event occured, would it tear the skin away?

Hi ya,

Totally get you there. Its a rounded trim for sure , just can not find in the IVA if they want a minimum radius.
