As long as it doesn't make the fitting of parts any different then I will take your advice!

CP16 is the top plate of the pedal box/ & also carries the steering column bush that is fully welded to the chassis frame which you then bolt the pedal box to it, it won,t effect any "fitting" of other parts but WILL ensure your pedalbox doesn,t flex when braking,

Afterall... the seperate pedal box instructions are to fabricate the pedal box from 3mm.....no point then bolting that to a 1mm plate ......I,ve seen CP16 plates warp when being welded into the chassis when they were made from 1mm plate....not good.....go for 3mm plate.
