I would but my fat butt won't fit under there if I do.....:(

Brian,

Love the panel. Question about Throttle, Prop and Mixture knobs on the panel vs. per the plans. I'd like to do the same for the same reason above. Any problems and changes you had to make like longer cables or such?

Thanks,
 
The big hassle is that if you ever need to pull the panel, you must pull the cables.

Since my panel is extended at the bottom, the factory cables work but just barely. If you do not extend the panel, I doubt they will reach.

Hope this helps!
