Nice job! Can you tell me where you got the cover behind your control panel?I just finished wiring mine. They really do help. I am not satisfied with how it all works. I figured I needed to wire them with the switches in the panel. I was able to make it work but it was a lot more work and I will change things as soon as it warms up in spring. If you look on my panel I have an auto fuse panel just behind the usb and cigarette lighter on the right side of the panel. I was able to get the wire around the vent and under the side panels. That is where I made the junction connection. It works but just not like I want it.
I believe a better plan is to run power to the baggage area to a fuse panel so I can power the seats, camera, OX system, and another USB outlet. I am not sure why I thought I had to have the switches mounted on the panel but I drilled the holes first so I was stuck. View attachment 54733
Abby. Flightline Interiors.Nice job! Can you tell me where you got the cover behind your control panel?
I just finished up wiring my seat heat. This is specific to the RV-14. I ended up mounting the replays to the inside of the tunnel, about 8" aft of the spar. There is lots of clearance from the elevator pushrod. In this location, all the factory seat heat wires are plenty long enough to reach everything.I have my Classic Aero seats and seat heat wires in hand but not yet installed. Hopefully this week I can change that.
My seat heat switched are installed in the center of the panel, below the radio stack and above the engine controls. I know that the wires provided will not reach the seats, through the center tunnel. I'll have to do some surgery.
If the switches were mounted further aft, say in the flap motor cover, the provided harness might work.
