Pitot tube line

I'm at the stage in building the wing that I need to take care of the pitot tube. I'm going with the simple Van's design and need to know how long do I make the tubing through the ribs? Do I go to the most inboard rib and leave it or add any extra length? What kind of fitting on this end?

Thanks,
Ryan
 
pitto tubing

Just leave a small coil and roll it up inside the lighting hole till your ready to
install the wings, you can then go inside the fuse from there, or run polly tubing out to the end.. I installed the fitting on the wing and made the
tube out of stainless steel with the fitting and stored it till its ready so you don't beat it up move the wings around.. I think the tube shows 6-8 inches
down with a 3" 90 degree bend, its been a while so don't hold me to those
measurements..
