There are already some old threads and good advice, but like to see if I can get a survey for RV6/7/10/12/14. Reading dustyold threads (Ref two below), I picked this list. Please fill put survey and comment if you please, why you like or don't like your decision or plane on a location. List below going from Front to Back
#1 Inst panel lower outboard L & R bottom corner
#2 Under & Fwd of Inst panel Outb'd L&R sub-panel
#3 Under & 9" Fwd of Inst Outb'd L&R bulkhead (shin area)
#4 Aft end of Arm Rest
#5 Seat Pan or center console between seats.
#6 Seat Back upper cross member, center between seats
#7 Seat Back vertical member, center between seats
#8 Seat Pan, Outb'd & Aft between seat and fuselage side
#9 Baggage compartment floor level, behind and between seats
#10 Baggage compartment floor level, behind and L & R outboard of seats
There are Pros & Cons with these #1 thru #3 easy wiring. Anything in the center or high, #5, #6, #7 and #9, more wiring, access, may be in the way. Anything aft of seats #9 and #10 more wiring, harder to access in flight, may affect cargo loading. I am planning on #2 or #3. A headset hook can hold headsets to side under panel. Wrangling the headset cord will be a minor chore, I think.
