Brief Description:  Mix & throttle cables

Drilled out the panel pieces for the air vents, now that I have the vents from Stein. Cut the holes slightly small, then filed/dremeled up to size. With the panel now prepared, I could cleco it in place and run the mixture cable. I had held off on this until the air vent was in place in case the air vent was ending up too close to the mixture. Used lamp cord pass-thrus on the firewall. Used steel for these parts. The throttle cable I used a very short pass-thru since it fit tight. The mixture I used one about 2" long to give some stability to the cable. I'll put some RTV on this so no air will pass through. The throttle cable is not obvious to install - the outer sheath has to be in place from the throttle handle through the firewall, and the inner cable has to be assembled into the Aerocarb slide, then you slide the inside of the cable through the sheath out to the handle. Got it working nicely. Mixture cable I cut to length. Have to paint the panel before installing it for the last time though.
