Actual prices are $400 for a 35w system (same as BB), and $440 for a 50w
system - this is 20% off retail for our group purchase.
Also, according to John Sjaardema at Excel Air, the BB installation
required additional labor to install since it is deeper than the
XeVision. A hole was cut in the baffling and a pie-pan (included in the
kit, I understand) was installed behind the baffle to allow for
additional clearance. Then the pie-pan was interfering with the
muffler, which required more modification...
Let us know what your experience is with the BB install.

at $40 for a replacement 4509Q bulb, that's 10 bulbs. At 1 bulb every
3 to 4 years (my average, you mileage may vary), that's 30 years of
bulbs. Some people just like to spend money on their planes. I'd
rather upgrade to a Garmin 530 from my 430. Sure, the cost difference
is more. But, I would get a lot more out of it too.

If that's the case, it would never fit into my new cowling. I'm
stressing over whether or not to use the foam doughnut under the bulb
as it is.
