Just finished installing my instruments on my C250WK. I chose a NavPod pedestal mounted panel and tried to use every square inch of it.

After laying out the instrument placement on my Mac and shuffling things around on the computer, I finally got an arrangement I liked and printed it out. Then I taped the printout to the NavPod and started drilling, cutting, dremeling, and filing.

After dropping in the instruments and fishing countless wire down the pedestal guard, I applied power and was surprised by the absence of smoke and to find that everything actually worked!

Wow, Al! Nice job. You've got more instrumentation than a Boeing 747!

Very nice setup on both the nav pod and the remote controls...

I like the new fuel locker lid....
