Used our hydraulic punch to poke out the round holes. The rectangular holes were corner drilled and cut out with aircraft shears. Files were used to clean up the holes in shape and size.

Today I installed the new cover for the console and began work on the brake plumbing. I need to replace the line from the reservoir to the master as it interferes with the trim switch. Replacement parts now on order.

But I'm still piddling around with the wiring and cabling. Found out today that the GRT Sport SX will control a Garmin SL30 radio and the Microair 760 will support SL30 type input/output. So, I'm working on adding the necessary wiring between the two.
