Have I mentioned that you have to do a lot of vacuuming? Well, you do... Lots of debris to keep up with.... A portable vacuum works well. I use ear protection when I'm using it in the cockpit since it can be quite loud.
See the debris... 😁 From reaming it out first to M3 then M4 rivnut size.
Rivnuts in... BTW, I don't deburr these holes because I think it's actually good to leave burrs on holes for rivnuts - something to dig into the rivnuts to make it less likely they'll ever rotate. FYI: It's a pretty hard pull to get the rivnuts in the fiberglass.
Don't forget the Loctite 277!
A test of pulling of a rivnut to make sure it's not too little or too much.
After all the rivnuts were in I put in the panels and then the rear seat (at least temporarily). View from the back. 👌
Me. 😁
Nice view. For now I only put in every other screw for the rear panels.
Starting to look pretty comfortable...
