Thank you all for the answers.
Since almost all were about extra tanks in the wings, is anyone out
there aware of extra tanks on the baggage compartment?
Builders who done it, or after-market kit?

I recall some one offered a 7.5 gal tank to go in each wing tip to
achieve 75 gal, or 1 extra hour endurance.
Many aircraft have added baggage compartment tanks, either ridgid or
bladder, that could be teed into one of the main tanks with a wobble
pump or electric pump.

We have installed an additional half tank outboard of the stock tanks

and you transfer into the mains. It's a big job, but it works well.

One Caution.
Putting additional weight out at the tips of the wings will change spin /
roll characteristics. Make sure who ever is supplying the tanks will
verify spin testing has been performed for the additional mass / moment
arms involved.
But then you are the manufacturer and you own that verification.
