Consider a subpanel of the gyro instruments.
Modern gyros are much lighter than the one of the WWII generation!

Cessna use a 3/8" dia with 10-32 double stud. Granger carries a double
stud of 10-32 1/2 diameter
which is rated for about 17 pound in shear.
Numbers off the top of my head, need to actually look in the catalog.

Any type of vibration isolation will benenfit.

to hear of other solutions people have found to accomplish the mission

minimal extra panel space.

Thanks


How about shock mounting the entire instrument panel?
