Default Help ordering the Finishing and FWF kits

This past week two friends (including Radomir who posts here) helped me finish riveting the lower fuselage together and yesterday we rolled it over.

Because of this milestone I am ready to order the finishing, FWF kits, and exhaust system from Van's.

It has already been suggested that I delete the wiring harness option and I am going to go with the throttle quadrant like Roberta's. Other than those items what suggestions (inclusions and deletions) do you veterans have for me?

Thanks in advance for all of your help!

I liked everything in the FWF kit. The wiring part could easily be deleted, but I would keep the rest. Even though I did not follow Van's wiring diagram, I did use almost all the wire and it was handy 'cause the wires were marked. You get a lot of the ground and battery cables, too. Maybe get a stainless steel heater valve. The cables will need to be substituted for the custom quadrant style of the same length. Good luck. Looks like you're on the base leg now.
