I'm curious about the Jaeger install. Did you do it yourself? Help? Watch? I've seen his quote of 40-50 hours labor, just wondering how laborious it really is. I've heard horror stories using new parts from Plane Plastics . . . And yes, I could really use them. The beauty of his system is that it sounds like something I could do a little at a time, self-installed, and get it "right."

When I brought the airplane to Willmar, I stayed for 2 nights and did a bit of helping / watching.  Majority of my "help" involved removing screws to take apart the interior.  I also removed adhesive from an overhead panel which previously had fabric.  Some time was spent by me on the instrument panel overlay and replacing worn out placards.  

It was useful being present for the start of the project because Bruce was able to quickly ask for input regarding color and material choices.  

Initially, I was going to leave the existing seats and carpet.  Once I saw how nice it was looking, I decided to drive the seats to SCS Interiors in Duluth for reupholstery.  I am happy with that decision!

All I really would want is the pilot and copilot door panel to extend space  - I wonder if you could buy just that?  

How much extra elbow room do you feel like you have?

i did the spatial interrior install with Bruce early this year. It came out great, his system works very very well, but you need all the panels, you can't just buy the front since it is considerably different design from the OEM panels and it would just not work combining the old an the new, at least I would think.

Bruce does amazing work and it is hard to keep up with him, we spent 3 full days of installations him and me. We did the interrior, and I did the the carpets and my seats were done by a local shop.

Erik, if you like, next time we meet, you can show me your prop and I will show you my spatial interrior.
