I can speak to the Navworx install as I'm going through it now. Bill Moffitt,
their rep/owner? is tough to reach so send him an email (address at their site).
Basically, two antennas (gps and uat-on the 10 I'm putting mine top and bottom
on forward end of tailcone-rg400 antenna cable w/bnc connectors), encoder wire
from EFIS or transponder, couple of wires to display (efis or x96).
He'll send you the full install instructions if you ask. I'll be glad to send
them if Bill M. says it's ok.
Incredibly easy install although definitely not flying yet.
The money spent on this was saved by getting the gtx327 instead of the gtx330.
Of course, in Florida we have extensive ads-b coverage.

I just helped someone install a Navworx box too. As you said, fairly
easy install. We put it in the exact same place, it sounds like. It
was a little unclear, I thought, for hooking up to an AFS screen, but
Bill helped us out. In my experience Bill was easy to get ahold of.
Every time I called he answered the phone. It does seem a little
archaic to have to use a terminal emulator to setup their box, but I
guess there's no other way without a screen or a special program (like
Dynon uses). We have had some functionality issues, but are still
troubleshooting. Overall it seems like a great option instead of mode-
S for those who live around good ADS-B coverage, like in FL or up and
down the east coast. Be aware, however, that AFS doesn't currently
show weather and it's likely they won't for some time with all their
efforts thrown towards their 4500 line.

Jesse's correct about no weather display from ads-b on AFS screen. I'm doing AFS
units and plan to run the weather from xm. Either to 696 or efis depending
on which looks better/is available.

I had to remove the Pro-Seal from a C-421 windshield frame and
retainers; a Harbor Freight Pneumatic Scraper with a polycarbonate
blade we made worked great. The Pro-Seal was built up 1/4" in places
and it pealed it off without hurting the aluminum. Blue Skys

Avery has this tool:
http://www.averytools.com/pc-1055-80-sr-sealant-cutters.aspx
I've used sharpened plexiglass strips. There are phenolic and hard plastic
scrapers for the job. There is a stripper called Polygone AG that slowly
disolves proseal. Just finishing up a full strip and reseal of a Mooney wet
wing tank. Used the Polygone to remove more difficult areas like rivet heads
and in seams between spar and ribs/skins. However you do it, avoid metal
scrapers, metal wire wheels, etc that will remove alclad layer.

I finally got the plane moved to the airport. All went well and had plenty of great
help. Thanks to all who helped. Bob Leffler, Brad Leffler, Jim Baldwin, Jack
Ferernce, Al Moyer, Pat Ferguson, Matt Finley and Cals towing. When I called
to get prices on roll backs Cals Towing thought I was joking when I said I
need to have an airplane towed.
The end is getting near
