REFLECTOR: Cowling Attachment

[Mark Magee]

Bill,
I plan on using Skybolt, if there are different part numbers for the longer
ones on the doghouse or nose hatch would you mind posting them. I
calculated about $500 to replace all my #10's and some 8's to do both
cowls, wheelpants, nose door and dog house including the install tool. This
is much more economical vs certificated camlocks.
