I have decided to not install the canopy release / eject leaver on the font panel, but rather secure the leaver under the instrument panel with a screw and nut plate, so that the canopy can still be removed easily for maintenance.
From all I have read, jetisoning the canopy is probably not practical in the air, and then there is the issue of not having or wearing a parchute.
