RV-14 FWF and Interior Kits
 
I wonder when/if Van's will release a Firewall Forward kit for the 14. I just got the finishing kit and the only thing forward of the firewall is the engine mount!

AND, what about seats, carpets, sidewalls etc!

And no pictures? For all of us dying to see the kit, you must post pictures. They no longer supply seats or seatbelts (from what I have heard), since everyone replaces them and I am pretty sure, no carpet or sidewalls. Maybe Ken can make us some up since he seems to be really good at that and sell them.

How long after the order did you receive it? Lots of parts?

No cowl or spinner in the Finish Kit?

Finish Kit
 
Cowl yes; spinner no. Wheel pants, canopy, gear, fairings. No wiring harness. No engine mounting items.

Finish kit mostly follows the tradition for the other RV's with the exception of the spinner.
It will be marked for blade cutouts, etc., like the RV-12, for easy installation, so it was rolled into the FWF kit like it is for the RV-12.

Doesn't sound like this kit will take long to go thru and then another waiting period for the next kit unless one wants to purchase the items individually as mentioned in another post.

Hey Scott,

For those of us not familiar with what normally comes in a particular kit, can you let us know what we should expect in the FWF kit? What part of the kit has the landing light brackets, wire harnesses, etc.? Your communication and input is extremely appreciated, especially for those of us not familiar with previous models. Thanks.
