Maybe you can made a paper template over the old one🤔
Thank you.
Banged this out quickly,
Both headphone jacks and USB charge port, located behind the passenger seat (Easy access for the pilot)
Can't take credit for the idea, as I saw it on this forum first and thought to myself "Genius Idea" I always hated jacks in the dash, with wires everywhere.
Nothing is wire up yet, But I did temporarily connected the the USB port just to see it light up and say "Oooooh Awwwww"

I also saw this on another post but just the headset jacks. USB port is a natural in the same location. Brilliant! :D
Not a whole lot to report. Drafted out the new dash.

Tested out in cardboard. have to make some adjustments, unhappy I have to put the Airspeed indicator in the lower left side of the dash, but all the other steam gauges are just to long, and the ASI is the shortest

Lots of new wire runs for.....well everything
oddly satisfying removing the door skins.

Two 1N5400 Diodes arrived in the mail so I installed them on the starter and battery coils.
Heres my way of connecting them: Remember the stripe on the diode goes towards the positive side. I used clear shrink wrap over the assembly.
Connected to the main battery coil

Close up of the shrink wrap and ring terminal's, Sized so the diode can never be installed backwards

Also some of my circuit breakers have arrived, maybe soon I can start wiring things up.

I'm intrigued as to the purpose of the the diode?
