Mine is 18 & 3/16ths inches long by 14 & 13/16ths inches wide. That's overall. Including the black rubber trim around the edge (which appears to be about 1/4 inch thick.) Hope that helps!

One project I want to complete over the winter, is to make a dash table. Want to get it as close as I can to looking correct. With that I'm hoping someone can provide some of the missing dimensions. I will update the diagram for future table builders.
Image may have been reduced in size. Click image to view fullscreen.

So some questions I have:
1) Are "A" and "B" equal (Is the leg bracket in the center?)
2) What is the spacing "C" between the brackets?
3) How long are the brackets "D"? Also how far do they stick out of the table (forgot that on the diagram)
4) What's the corner "R" radius. If someone could confirm it's the same as the back table I can just measure and copy that
5) Does the side view of the bracket look correct, or is it just a "L" shape? Can't really tell from any of the gallery pictures.

1 - Yes. A & B both = 9.25, including the rubber trim
2 - C = 8.5
3 - D = 1 1/16 and the missing E (depth) = 3/8
4 -
5 - Yes but compressed. Where you are pointing with the "dash clip" line isn't a gap, it is squeezed tightly together. They look like Ts if you stand the table up on end.
