Here is a view of the auxiliary fuel tank bay. Cork strips have been installed and a hole for the fuel drain cock has been cut. 3 cork strips have also been attached longitudinally to the bottom of each tank to support the floor of the tank when it has fuel in it.

Strobe transformer has been mounted to the spar using 4 AN3 bolts. Wiring has been wrapped in plastic spiral wrap and routed under the ribs through the holes at the spar. Each hole was then flooded with silicon adhesive (the white stuff) to keep wire from moving.
