First with regards to the magnatometer. in the CJ we mount it where the remote gyro compass mounted. In most CJs you actually have a choice, either in the tail or in the wing. Both will work well depending on the manufacturers instructions. Remember you have to shim the unit to get it exactly level, but with the structure already built into the airplane that has been plumbed, a lot of the work is already done for you. OAT probes. Actually a slick place to mount it is in the rear of the nose gear well. It works very well there, doesn't get dirty, is out of the exhaust path, and is out of sight. As an aside, I'm thinking of redoing the front panel in my airplane and making it one piece. The stock configuration is a challenge to put the EFIS stuff in and lay it out nicely. With the new Garmin 696 out you can now have a high quality full glass panel for right about $10K. Amazing....
