Completed Instrument Panel
The MGL iEFIS in the center, the MGL V6 Comm to its right. These are on a fold down sub-panel.
From Left: Van's eyeball vent, ignition switch, throttle, choke; above it are: lighted master switch, to its left alternator field switch, elevator trim tab rocker switch and indicator and fuse. From the right side: Van's eyeball vent, throttle, iEFIS switch/breaker, Comm switch/breaker, and above them ELT test panel and cockpit heat knob. Now all that's needed is paint and wiring. :)

No problem, Donald. It took quite a bit of design effort and laying out all the parts exactly, but it should be worth it in the long run. The fold-down panel is about 13-1/2" wide by 7" high, so everything behind is accessible without crawling under it. That iEFIS system has two CR2032 lithium cells that need replacement periodically, which would really be a pain without that panel.
