I used the standard static port and tubing aft, and it is working very well. When the tubing came forward I used the push fittings behind the panel and they work very well too. It all works fine whatever you want to do.
The 1/4 inch nylon J844 brake line tubing sold for trucks is pretty cheap for the wing pitot, AOA or aft static lines too and very long lasting. Any push fitting you find compatible with it will last a lifetime in our application. J844 won't push onto the plans rivet for the static port though. That's why I used the Vans tubing aft and converted forward.
The SafeAir (and others) static port doesn't work better than the rivet.
