That is too cool, Gary! I was wondering what happened to that project.

I'm down in South Carolina getting the panels cut right now. I am not happy with the cut of the light post holes and the instrument holes, so I'm just cutting the outline of the panel, which is spot on, and marking the centers of all instrument and mounting holes and will drill everything out and use an instrument punch to cut the holes. I hope to have something to show tomorrow or Monday.

Apologies for digging up an old post but I was wondering if the CAD files are available for the second and third panels in Gary's photo? I'm looking to redo my panel in an 8-hole layout without the dress panel. I found the thread on the MX Forum but it looks like all of the DXFs there assume that you will be using the cover.

Pay me enough money and anything is possible. :P

PM me your email address and I’ll send you the files you need.
