Justin your airplane is looking great
Looks great, only downside may be working in the tunnel will become 'challenging' with the center stack.

I just updated to the new Aerosport switches with graphics in my RV-10. Photo taken last night about 50 miles east of Van's during a software test flight.

Just got this photo from SteinAir. Looking forward to installing the panel very soon.

Looking very nice !
what does stein air charge for something Like this ?
Here's a photo of my Garmin equipped RV-10 panel. I realized in looking at today's posts of RV-14 panels that I still hadn't posted a pic of mine.
I worked with Jason and Aerotronics on the layout and then had them cut the panel. They also supplied most of the hardware for the panel (switches, Garmin avionics, breakers, etc.). Jason and his team were very easy to work with and very responsive. I highly recommend them.
I created the wiring diagrams and then built the harnesses and wired the panel. So far I have been very happy, but am still on a learning curve with all the G3X and GTN capabilities.

What’s under the 750?
Very nice!
What are the things to the left and right of the 650? Hard to tell, but almost look like some sort of slide dimmer??
This is the panel I am going to show my wife when I make the pitch for the trimmings and panel.
Gorgeous Sir.....
This my new -10 panel built and installed by Avionics Systems. David Buckwalter and his team worked with me to do another beautiful panel (they also did my -9 panel a few years ago. With the latest and greatest from Garmin, finished in double stitched leather and carbon fiber, it is just what I was looking for, really happy with it. I expect to be finish building and first flight by late this fall.
While the cockpit is not complete, the mechanical panel work is done. Everything designed in 3D and then waterjet cut and anodized. Stock panel design. The radio stack fits underneath the central rib, no cutouts needed.
All switches and dials will sit on the bar below the panel. Above the switches, a dimmable, dense micro-led-bar (360 LEDs) will backlight Dymo printed black on clear labels on milk glas covered with thin acrylic for protection.
The master caution and master warning light also has Dymo printed labels underneath the cover.
If anyone is interested in the 3D-design, I open-sourced it here on OnShape (create a free account, then clone the design):

Major parts working after running some 138 wires (see https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1AqWwhWavieX5wUc94eRBboVtdiVnk19nisR-6vLuD6g/edit?usp=sharing). I have a 650 main GPS and a 375 secondary GPS with transponder. Cross fill works via the G3X system.While the cockpit is not complete, the mechanical panel work is done.

I'm interested in possibly cloning your panel for my RV-10. I've always planned to use the stock panel, in lieu of the Aerosport ones, to save money and "knee room." Does your G5 fit under the glare shield. It looks a little close. Also, why the backup GPS? Did you use the 3D model files to fabricate all the supports and sub-panel structure, or did you build them as you went with your wooden model (meaning only used the 3D files to watercut the panel itself)? I'm curious how much I could do with your files, without having the actual Garmin racks and avionics.

Almost finished..
Very nice, and similar to my setup. I have one remark looking at your switches: you combined the battery and the alt switch while I kept them apart. The reason I did this is to cover the case that e.g. battery one goes bad. If you now want to continue and use the main alternator, you need to turn the cross feed on to get alternator two to bus one. But you would want to switch battery one off and keep alternator one on.Another variation on the same theme.
