Fiberglass Ceiling panels available

[M20F-1968]

I have the left and right ceiling panels available from a Ovation.  These were originally purchased to modify for my F model.  I subsequently obtained an entire Ovation interior and used those parts in my plane. Thus, there two ceiling panels are left over and are available.  They can be installed in a J or Vintage C-G Mooney with modifications which are easy to accomplish given that they are fiberglass.  If anyone is considering a new interior, these would be a good start to modernizing the ceiling.  These two panels form the left and right sides of the ceiling in an Ovation and have the window pillers that go around the side windows.  I can be reached at (617) 877-0025 and by e-mail at johnabreda@yahoo.com

Just curious, what sort of FAA paperwork is required to go with this mod? Seeings how they seem to care about me changing the overhead dome light to LED, I wonder about it.

This was not a big deal since Mooney has installed the same/similar interior parts in J models and other Vintage Mooneys.  That was a retrofit project for the factory.  Additionally, the interior is not structural.  I had my DER approve installation and we went forward. 

The LED lighting is a different issue as it is connected to the electrical system of the airplane, so the FAA will be looking for an STC for some certified airplane and/or PMA certification.
