    I am using GRT, but I think the AHRS system is about the same. I am puttin g the magnetometers just aft of the rear baggage. See: http://mykitlog.com/users/display_log.php?user=danbeadle&project=8 8&category=1659&log=135870&row=16 I am putting the AHRS on a shelf attached to the instrument panel. The who le avionics system removes for bench work. I have 4 power connectors one D B connector and a bunch of antennas to disconnect, then the whole assembly slides out for work. http://mykitlog.com/users/display_log.php?user=danbeadle&project=88&cat egory=1659&log=135870&row=16 I hope this is useful.

    Subject: ADAHRS Installation
    I just installed a Dynon Skyview system in my RV-6. The Dynon is different from the GRT in that the AHRS and the Magnetometer are in the SAME box. With the GRT AHRS, you can mount it behind the panel without a problem since RF/Magnetic interference isn't a problem. On my RV-8, I put the AHRS behind the panel and mounted the Magnetometers in the tail under the fin. This worked out very well and I'd do it again this way. On the RV-6, with the Dynon combined AHRS/Magnetometer, I opted to mount it right behind the elevator bellcrank. This seems to work "pretty well", but I'm finding that the close proximity of the Elevator Autopilot Servo causes the Magnetometer to swing 2-5 degrees when its powered on. If I had to do it again, I would extend the Static and Pitot lines back to under the fin and mount it there, similar to how the the GRT Magnetometers are mounted on the RV-8. I've attached some pictures of the RV-6's Dynon installation and the RV-8's GRT installation. The filenames of the respective pictures describe the particular installation.
