    Rowland, I used the Skybolt CLoc 4000 series, http://skybolt.com/catalog%20pages%20web%2020-36.pdf There are a number of pitfalls using any camlock style system. The firewall area at the top is not square. This causes head of the camlock to appear cocked. Because of this, they will leak in the rain. I put them only around the base of the cowl or firewall only. I have a piano hinge along the top and bottom of the cowl. If I were to do it again. I'd use the Camlock style locks along the sides too. I had the greatest problem getting the sizes (lengths) correct. The Skybolt receptacles were poorly designed, but they went back to their old design and it works better now, but you have to have access to them for adjustment. (Getting head flat) All Camlocks are designed for metal, not fiber glass, so it takes some work to get them to fit correctly. Getting the Grommet's square is the hard part. The Grommet's length is also a problem as the retainer area is to small for the fiberglass and will fall out if the hole is to large. Skylock now offers a CLoc SK400 Oversize or Worn Hole mod. I have not tried them let, but will come spring. I'd installed the cowling with screws first time. Then once everything is in place, I'd then start installing the camlocks, one at a time. Start with the receptacles on the back side of the firewall. Square them up using resin paste or grinding down the back side face of the firewall. The Skybolt have a small hole in the receptacles that you can use to drill a hole through the cowl. Once you have a hole that is drilled you can drill a larger hole to place the gromment in. Good luck in whatever system you choose. Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=464721#464721

    Three nights would get you to Segovia and back if you want to join the Spain trip which is now provisionally scheduled end of June?
