Just the instruments. The wiring of everything in back will be the next big project.

Eventually, the 2nd alternator and supporting H/W will go. Also, I have Parahelion copper-clad aluminum fat wire which will replace the existing fat wire.

These 8 lbs of instruments were removed from the old panel along with the approximately 35 lbs of Garmin H/W.

And then another 7 lbs of alternator H/W and about 4 lbs of Whelen strobe/lights/power supply. That sleek piece in the lower left is one of the 6 oz AEROLED Nav/Strobe units replacing the Whelens.

Had to make up a new cover plate for the back of the transmission where alternator #2 formerly resided.

Spent several weeks identifying and relabeling aircraft wiring. Talk about tedious...

Did numerous test fit insertions of the instrument panel shell. I think I finally have it ready to install.

But I'm still piddling around with the wiring and cabling. Found out today that the GRT Sport SX will control a Garmin SL30 radio and the Microair 760 will support SL30 type input/output. So, I'm working on adding the necessary wiring between the two.

Maybe by the end of the week I can have the shell installed and wired into the aircraft so I can plug these into it. We'll see. These 26ºF (-3.3ºC) mornings have been limiting me to only 4 or 5 hours of afternoon work a day.
