It's actually less than you might think. At the top of the purchase page on our web site is a "Pricing Analysis" document that you can use to determine what things you don't have to buy, so you save money. And just as importantly, it gives you a good idea about the ways in which you can simplify your aircraft's electrical system and at the same time get more features.
Thanks for the nice words, all.

wow
That is a very nice airplane, I am installing my vertical power now. Its just a vp sport but I already know I am going to like it. We use something similar to it at work and have zero problems with it.

Sent them to engravers.net for engraving.
Note that these are, for the most part, switched through the VP-400. The master, mags, and cross tie are wired directly to those items.

Reason: Removed part numbers. Switches are beautiful but not very solid.

Is the panel carbon fiber or is that just an overlay on the stock panel?

I sent Aerotronics a .dxf file and they bonded the carbon fiber (real) to aluminum backing, cut it out, did the panel labeling. Then they clear coat it with a satin clear.

Disregard question, found answer.
I'm usually not a big fan of carbon fiber, but your panel looks awesome.
