Default Doubler for current limiter on firewall?

For you builders using "Uncle Bob's" electric system (i.e. Zxx), I was wondering if any of you put a "doubler" on the aft side of the firewall to support the current limiter mount for extra stability? (Doubler would be on the AFT side of the firewall supporting the limiter shown here).

Smile Current Sense Resistor location

....and one other option is the sense resistor for your ammeter in series with this current limiter. Might as well mount that close while you are at it...

gil in Tucson

PS .. note this is one wiring option for the sense resistor...
The wiring options are shown here on page 3-11 of this Dynon Installation guide.

All three options can use the sense resistor adjacent to this current limiter...
