Brief Description:  Skybolt fasteners for firewall

Tonight I read up some more in the Skybolt RV installation documentation. The instructions are a little convoluted as you have to skip around a little for getting the information.

I am using the hinge for the sides and am only using the fasteners around the firewall parimeter. The instructions call for a 3 1/2 inch spacing but that has to be adjusted to keep an even spacing or at least give the illusion of even spacing. I mean pertty much all RV 7-8-9's should be consistant and it would be nice if the company would give a template for installing the fasteners....and if owners wanted to divert they could at their own will.

Anyway, I started at where I thought would be a good starting point and set the first one then began to cleco clamp them on measuring the correct spacing. I doubt it will come out even and will have to adjust to keep the spacing asthetically correct to the eyes. Better to get them on now while the mount and everything is still off on the FWF side......I will continue to muddle through the process.
