Today I drilled the Garmin SL-40 and GTX-330 trays to the instument panel support angles. Then I marked the subpanel where the trays pass through and cut the opening. After a few iterations the trays fit the opening well. Finally I fabricated siffener and support angles for the forward side of the subpanel around the tray opening and drilled the angles to the subpanel.
