Nort,

Just wondering ... what did you do with your GPS? Remount it elsewhere, or just travelling by dead reckoning/celestial navigation (technical words) now?

Normally......I use the round floating thing with numbers all around it. I also have a pocket Garmin in the glove box if it's needed.

Nort,

Do you still have this program for laying out a template? I would like to see what it would look like if I put my GPS on the lower left, then staggered 8 guages to the lower right (as in "B" below). Just tachs and speedo on the top.

Yep ... that's it EXACTLY!

Did you give this layout any consideration?

Just trying to accomodate for the size of the 182C and eliminate the asymetry of the factory 8-guage layout.

Just looks a little cleaner to me this way.

Thanks for your help, Nort!

Anybody have opinions or input on the "F" layout?

I usually prefer a center mounted primary piece (like D) but if you have someone trying to watch the GPS for you the F layout will be better for that. Of course I don't get to drive this thing so my opinion isn't worth much.
