I will be installing the manual elevator trim. I would like to do something different to eliminate the half loop that the cable makes up to the fuel selector cover where it mounts. I am considering routing the cable through the tunnel cover & making a bracket/cover to mount the handle to. The trim knob would be slightly aft of the fuel selector handle and would be operated "back-handed". I've simulated this by placing the knob in the proposed position & sitting in the seat just to see how it "feels". It doesn't seem awkward and I'm sure I could get use to it.
My question:
Has anyone done/seen this? If so...got a picture?
Does anyone see a problem with doing this sort of install? (interference, etc.)
I've searched the archives for this particular idea, but have yet to see anything about it.
FWIW, I've seen a trim knob mounted on the sidewall & don't like that much either. And no electric trim for me.
Thanks for any ideas on this.
