A quick search didn't turn up anything.
Has anyone moved their tipup instrument panel aft to provide a bit more clearance behind the panel? I'm running into clearance issues at the top, due to the canopy's brace structure, and also at the bottom left, where I'd like to put an instrument that barely touches the triangular gusset running from top longeron to the sub-panel.
The move looks do-able with some square tubing or C-channel spacers. The only obvious domino is the mount for the air vents, but I can handle that. Any other 'gotchas'?
Thanks,
Charlie
