Echo Posted November 17, 2023 Report Posted November 17, 2023 Bought my "new to me" M20E in August. Let the fun begin "making it mine". Thumbs WAY up to SC Interiors (out of Minnesota). Just received my Nylon interior kit and it appears to be of very high quality. My carpet was REALLY bad, but seats and plastics/headliner are in good condition. I have a basic Audio Panel, but it was yellow and it was hard to read the buttons...Ebay to the rescue. Bought a black model that is in good shape and should be plug and play. Found my PS3000 intercom on Ebay too. I have an inop old Brittain directional auto pilot that has been removed as well as two old Nav indicators. Got my CO monitor installed and looking forward to getting EDM830 installed on pilot side next to the Aspen 1000. My OEM Garwin looked terrible with cracked glass and worn silk screen on labels. Ebay again for a serviceable unit that looks like new (58 years later ). Had yokes powder coated and installed $10 bike grips that are easy to hold and look SO MUCH BETTER than that cracked ugly OEM coating. Found a Parmetheus landing light "used" on EBAY. 10000 hours and it was new in 2021 so looking forward to losing the OEM halogen light. I will have light on ALWAYS while flyig for additional "be seen" safety. Avionics scheduled for install in February and LOCAL after getting an absurd quote from one and NO quote (not worth their time) from another. It is really fun to visualize what the plane WILL BE IN A FEW months. Deals are out there. Be patient, know what you want and "pounce" when you see your deal. Enjoy the hunt. 2 Quote
DCarlton Posted November 17, 2023 Report Posted November 17, 2023 There used to be an upgrade kit available for the cabin interior door handle. I upgraded mine after I twisted off the original handle and trapped myself in the airplane. :/ It’s black. Quote
