Dash projections + radii....? + mounting clocks?
Can anyone just please confirm what the exact dimensions are and also how the sva inspector will check them..?
Also, i'm trying to mount my r1 clocks somewhere, and not sure if they will be fully visible behind the wheel..?
I'm in a similar position to this thread
click
and don't really want to recess them into the dash, so could i build a foam/mdf surround around them that could say fall off after sva? If so
what are the key dimensions that the surround will need to be?
Thanks and any help/pics greatly appreciated.

I made a frame with perspex in the middle. All nicely chamfered with a router and recessed for the flush fitting perspex.
Stuck it on with double sided sticky tape.
I left it at mac#1 after my SVA, unfortunately it never survived their huge BBQ.

The sooner you fall behind, the more time you'll have to catch up.

cool, will a surround without the perspex in do..?? I assume the probe he uses to check wouldn't be able to contact the edges of the clocks if
the surround is raised up above the clocks...?
What size/shape is the probe that is used to check this?
many thanks

FYI the interior maximum radius is 2.5mm. The inspector will use a radius gauge which is a small rectangular piece of steel with the corner notched
out to a 2.5mm radius.

Won't he check it with some sort of 'sphere' to make sure that the radius/sharp edge can actually be touched before actually using
the radius gauge on it...?
thanks

Sorry, I didn't write that too well. I was doing two things at once. He most likely will but didn't with mine personally as there's
nothing obscured/obstructed so he went straight in with the gauge. My bike clocks were an obvious fail due to the clock bezels despite my plea that
that was how they are standard.

Cool, any idea what size the sphere/probe is that he will check with? Just want to be sure that if i make a surround for the clocks they will
pass...
thanks
