Nimbus charged $1200 to repair and refurb both the switch panel and the flap panel.

Air Capital Dial was going to be another $300-400 on top of that.

For anyone thinking of taking the electroluminescent switch panel off, be sure you read my edit of my post in this thread dated: 06-10-21, 10:31 PM.

It has the potential to save you a lot of grief!

Yeah, my original original original plan was to eliminate the electroluminescent panel/converter, new plain panel and some other type of lighting.

But now that I think about it, alternative lighting might be a challenge. Recently did some work on the alternator switch and there’s not a lot of access behind there like for string of post lights, their securing nuts, wiring, ground…

Agreed, I don't think the Cessna engineers could have designed anything else to go back there.

I had to remove three pressurization instruments just to get to the little alternator restart push button. It's crazy.

There's no such thing as a "Line Replaceable Unit" on these airplanes.
