Fred

I hope to send you soon, a picture of your folding headrests on my seat 

backs.



On 16th May in a note to Ron P.  you suggested making splash moulds between 

fuselage and panel to align and support the inst. panel when mounting it in 

the fuselage -



This sounds like a great idea, angles or what; would you like to provide a 

few more details or perhaps a photo please?

Well Bob, if truth be told, when I reached that stage, I didn't find  

any particular difficulty aligning the panel moulding w/ its mounting  

holes in the firewall, so I did not follow my suggestion to Ron.



My panel molding is shock mounted to the firewall using those nice  

little isolation mounts w/ threaded studs on both ends thus allowing  

the mounts to be permanently bolted to the added flange on the panel  

molding. Installing the panel is then just a matter of aligning the  

studs w/ the holes in the firewall.



I'm doing my panel w/ sub-panels (as I suspect most builders are  

doing) including wire connectors so that, I can pull say the  

navigation/comm sub-panel or the flight instrument sub-panel...when  

doing so, the openings allow access to the aft face of the firewall if  

needed.



Along the edge of the vertical face of the purse shelf, I used 3 shock  

mounts w/ a stud in one end (bolting permanently to the firewall) and  

a threaded hole on the other end to receive a machine screw and washer.



Fred
