Every RV-10 that I have seen has the front seat tee handle next to the
door. It seams that it would be much easier to access and operate if it
was inboard near the tunnel. What am I missing?

Abby will still make RV-10 seat covers and carpet sets. The door and
headliner is just fabric, that Abby can supply, that you cut to fit and
use spray adhesive (like others have said) to put it on. She no longer
makes the upper interior panels.
Fabric covered doors with McMaster door seals is not quite as easy as
the Vans seals. You would need to hold the fabric off the perimeter
edge so seals to the painted fiberglass. Then you have to provide some
sort of finished edge on the fabric.

Aero sport make a extension that places the seat lever handle in the front. Makes
it easy to get to. I have one in my 10. There is another company that makes
one very similar cant think of their name. Thanks Neil

Larry,
I feel the same way and haven't seen any issues with -10s set up like that.

The Aerosport handles work well. Easy to reach in front of the seat.
You will have difficulty if you reverse the seats to put the handle next
to the tunnel, because the lever to tilt the seat back is also on the
outside and nearly impossible to get to if it were next to the tunnel.

I know a guy that has built several -10's and he always swaps the seats and puts
the T handles next to the tunnel. If you do not have a center console, it works
just fine and they're easier to get to. I started out (2007) with the very
early levers similar to the Aerosport levers. They worked great, but were made
out of lighter metal than needed and eventually broke. I was going to replace
them with similar ones from IflyRV10.com, but the mounting holes were in a different
location and I did not want to drill more holes in the seat. They also
offered a T-Handle extension that simply raises the T-Handle about 2 or 3 inches
higher, so I opted for that. Works great. If I was building today, I'd definitely
install the Aerosport levers.
Bottom line, no problems and easier access with the T-Handle next to the tunnel,
as long as you don't have a center console mounted on the tunnel.

I would recommend just finishing/paint the doors. Dont use a flat paint for this.
Flat paint will hold the dirt and stain more then a semi-gloss. Use a nice
2 part paint if possible. Let the finish coat dry about 90% and then if using
a spray gun and air compressor turn the air way down 2-5lbs and put a nice spatter/speckle
finish coat on. This makes a real nice, very light texture finish
and will also clean up very easy.
I have had many people ask what I put on my doors, thinking it was fabric, plastic
or a vinyl/leather.
FWIW
