Brief Description:  Instrument Panel/Avionics Shelf Install

With the instrument panel finished, I reassembled the panel and the avionics shelf to test for fit. With the avionics shelf in place for final assembly, I decided to also attach the shelf to the existing structure that links the instrument panel to the firewall and serves as the attach point for the center console side panels. Once I got everything fitted into place, I tore it all apart, cleaned it up (debur, sand, paint) reassembled it into place, and riveted the whole assembly together. It's permanent now!

...except for the center console which I can still pull out. I want to have that piece out where I can work with all the wiring coming off the switches and indicators on it before I install it permanently.
