MIP mounted and less effort than I thought.

They arrived today and from various pics around it was apparent this may have required a little more work than it actually did.

      By mounting the UFC/HUD directly to the 8040 but then using the mounting clamps for the side mfd's I was able to get them in a position that much better matched the VR cockpit and I wasnt having any issues reaching forward  for the knobs and getting the correct ones.

     It does feel like I have to reach a little further forward than they appear in VR but that can be solved if I want.

     I was planning to cut various pieces of 8040  to directly mount the mds to but the clamps in this orientation seem to work well.   It was apparent from before they arrive that with the UFC/HUD on the 8040 the lower mfd would not align well enough.    Some longer m5 bolts using nuts as spacer replacements brought it out.

     To this point, less work than I thought and unless I really need some placement finetuning in VR I think I can leave it like this

That's a slick setup. Nice work!
