Cowling attach cam locks

[Larry KMYA]

AltHough I already installed the hinge I’m considering converting to the cam locks for the upper cowl firewall attachment. Can anyone help me locate the cam locks and the brackets? Is it worth the effort?

I thought of installing these. It requires drilling out the rivets that hold the hinges, which will require paint repair, unless your airplane isn’t painted.

Used skybolts on the upper and lower cowl attachment of my RV-9A build and love them. all it takes is a minute or so to pull the top cowl. Assembly is reverse of removal…. I like the look myself.
