I used the Cth6 method. Thin rubber sheet from Amazon. Traced around the panel and cut out the middle. Used 3M weather strip adhesive with a weight on the panel till it cured and trimmed around it. Heated a nail to poke the fastener holes open. It installed pretty well and was very simple to do.
David Paule 3B FAB Update

I installed my ELT (I can move it if necessary) 90 degrees from the instruction recommendation. Can anyone tell me why I wouldn’t want this spot? Seems to fit perfectly and is out of the way of any cables.
