Panel is in the plane.

The rudder and brake pedals were installed under the panel.  Brake lines bled using the bottom upward technique.  All under panel nuts and bolts tightened up and then the install of the panel could proceed.  Two days of installation and one day of clearing up a few gremlins and it's all good to go.  Tested out the radio and engine monitor before engine start and all is good.  Radio sounds exceptionally good!
