Before I riveted the firewall recess in place I attached some brackets with nutplates to the vertical siffeners on either side of the recess. Access to install these later is limited, so it was best to get it done now. I will use these to support wire and plumbing runs.
I also received a 'Y' fitting I needed to complete the routing of the static lines attached to F-607. I attached the fitting to the rib between 606 and 607. I need a slightly longer 6/32 machine screw to complete the install. I located the 'Y' at the top of the fuselage to keep moisture from getting into the static system. Any moisture that gets in should drain back out the static ports rather than down to my ADAHRS.
