I installed the seat belt anchors tonight. \u00a0Other than it being pretty cramped where the outboard anchors attach, making it difficult to get a torque wrench in there, these were pretty straightforward. \u00a0I clamped a piece of scrap 1\/4″ thick steel between each pair of anchors and used an AN4 bolt to keep the upper holes aligned while I torqued these down.<\/p>\n

Next, I laid out and drilled for the static ports. \u00a0I’m using the SafeAir pitot\/static\/AOA kit, so the flange of the static port doesn’t allow you to install them precisely where Van’s recommends (11\/16″ forward of the vertical row of rivets). \u00a0The position I used is 2″ down from the horizontal row of rivets and 1 1\/4″ forward of the vertical row of rivets). \u00a0Here I’m holding the SafeAir static port in the hole while trying to take a picture. \u00a0I had a hard time getting my camera to focus on the static port, so this is a little blurry.<\/p>\n

I mixed up a small batch of proseal and bonded\/clamped these in position. \u00a0I installed the 90\u00ba adaptors in the ports before doing this so that I could ensure both of them are pointing upward. \u00a0I’m not going to use any rivets to secure the ports since the proseal is plenty strong to secure these.<\/p>\n
