Brief Description:  Cockpit dimmer potentiometer install x2

Temp installed the dummy warning lights in my panel
Temp installed the two trim indicators

Temp installed the two dimmer potentiometers. These have knob stems taht stick out further than i like so i trimmed them back a bit with my dremel cut off wheel

The potentiometers have heat sink control boards and I mounted both. One to the access door behind panel left side and the other in the apron area. Didnt do a very good job positioning the 4 mount holes. The second heat sink had a hole that I decided to fill with jb weld and will finish tomorrow.

These dimmers can handle up to a max of less than 1.5 amps
I have one to control the radio and transponder and other gauge lights together. The other will be for other cockpit lighting. Subject to change
