It looks you are putting three 2 inch instruments over there, will any fit in the top hole?

The problem is the top instrument hits the cross member. Not sure if it’s structural or not. Can I put a notch in it or modify to fit maybe?

Trying to install new EI instruments and at the goal line ran into a fit issue. Top instrument won’t fit because of the cross member shown. Any ideas?

Joe - may not be the answer you want to hear. That bar supports the top of the avionics stack and I wouldn’t notch it.

You look like you have also gone with smaller gauges below the new gauge. Have you considered having the right panel recut and make the holes smaller and move everything down?

That's the new plan. Nothing is ever easy Mom always said.
