Going to template and cut the panels in the rear, looking at fixings but only 1mm thick so countersinking is a bit tricky.

Lookin good Neil, we use a thing called a tinamun(think thats spelt correctly :smiley:) washer on the aircraft when its a thin skin to allow countersinking and can also allow for a bit of adjustment, I'll try and get a picture of said item 2 morra if you like :happy2:

Cheers gaz, be nice to get the fixings flush.  :happy2:

there you go Neil, not the best picture but i hope you get the idea, they can be had in various materials and sizes :happy2:



you drill the hole slightly bigger than the underside csk, and sometimes give the component that your mounting to a slight csk, depending on material thickness. Hope that makes sense, probably make more sense when you have 1 of the washers in your hand :happy2:

I'm sure I can get you some if you require :happy2:
