Hi,
I am close to finishing my RV6 (after 20+ years) and am finding the Top Cowl Piano hinges very frustrating to install/remove. So, I am considering changing to 1/4 turn fasteners.
Has anybody had actual experience of doing this conversion? I imagine that the worst aspect would be removal of the existing hinge halves, which are rivetted & glued to the cowls. Lots of grinding required...
In the meantime, I shall try the advice for improving the fit that is available on this great website.
All feedback highly appreciated.
Thanks
