Bulkhead

Cut and drilled a panel this evening to replace the bulkhead. The original panel had been riveted, but this one is bolted and can be removed to access the rear side of the dashboard. Recently I found quite a nice lid while recycling some stuff at work. I cut out where the steering column goes and adapted it to the bulkhead. This will be a nice and dry place for electrics with a rubber seal going all around it's bottom.

 

The lid is made of aluminium and I still have to find a solution to fix it to the panel underneath. The sign says: "This cover screw to be released before transporting by air" ... nice touch.

Cheers.
