Thanks
Appreciate the info so far. I didn't even know this was a factory option. Anybody else who can shed more light (so to speak) on such an installation, please weigh in!

Belly Photo Port
Can anyone vector me to some info on installation of a belly photo port on non-pressurized 337s, any STCs that have been done, etc.? I did a search on the forum but came up dry.
Thanks -
