open cockpit overhead - how to assemble?

[jespergb]

i have looked at the overhead from open cockpit and then buy the indicators and switches and then mount it my self.

BUT, i cant see how to fix the indicators and switches - on the picture the holes looks too big.

Anyone who has it or can tell how its done?

It is this product i talk about:

Hi Jespergb,

I think you will find that the switches are mounted on a panel that all those panels in the picture are mounted to. I think it is made of metal??? You would probably find it on their site.
If you look at the parts list here http://www.opencockpits.com/catalog/overhead-fully-assembled-p-325.html it list the metal frame as an item.
Kind Regards

Bernie.

The product you linked to comes complete with the main plate. This is usually a metal plate that the switches and annunciators fix to, then the engraved (blue and grey) panels fix on top.

It should look something like this...
