REFLECTOR: Side-Stick

[Chris Barber]

The SUV had a significantly cut down center console. Since it had one door you entered the pilot side and slid under the yokes and over the console. It is cut below the seat level thus allow about two inches of extra hip room on each side. 

The lack of the second door added to total structural integrity. When I added the second door the factory provided additional layup schedule in the center console/keel for reinforcement.
