I have a G3X Touch panel that I?ve finally mounted in the fuselage.
When Stein built the panel (which is beautiful), the harness lengths (12-18?) imply mounting most of the boxes immediately behind the panel, I suppose either attached to the next bulkhead or on mounts I?d fabricate between the bulkhead and crossbrace. The GTX45R and GTR20 are the biggest boxes by far and the two I most worry about. The others don?t concern me too much.
I need to mount a GTX45R, GTR20, GAD 29, GEA 24, grounding FOT and the avionics relay. None of them have harnesses long enough to mount very far away.
I could build an extension harness for either the GTX45 or GTR20, but both would require sourcing several connectors and pinning ~18 wires/shields.
What have others done?
