diverone 1 Posted June 30, 2012 Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 this is my new parking brake after some cosmetic changes,,, its a bit smaller and the two toggle switches has been changed for two push buttons that control the ATC window and the GPS MSG Button. Link to post Share on other sites

needles 1,010 Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 Hi Steven. It's looking great. Red and black Mmmmm! very Ferrari. A sporty cockpit in the making. I noticed a wee thing with your trim wheel, are you placing your instrument behind the plexi'? If not and you're placing them on the front surface, it looks at the moment that you may have to lower your trim wheel, as it looks like it may impinge on your bottom instrument panel. Just a thought. Regards Brian Link to post Share on other sites
diverone 1 Posted July 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 yes i will lower it.... at the time of the build i did not have the wheel closed by. i will make it lower by two inches,,, and a few changes ... the instruments will be in front of the panel. Link to post Share on other sites
