Two fwd access panels
I installed two fwd panels, since I wanted to access the GRT hdwe located between the subpanel and the firewall. I installed them before the skin was riveted on, but it strikes me that installation would be quite do-able after riveting too. My access panels are very conventional, rectangular in shape and installed with platenuts and #6 screws.
I know one builder who had complained of not being able to make them completely rain-tight. I know another who sealed them with #2 Permatex and says he has no leak issues. I have not yet "final sealed" mine, as I have some more GRT to make adjustments (scale factors, and offsets). Needless to say, I plan to use the Permatex approach.
