What are the options here? How difficult and/or expensive would it be to have one of these installed? The avionics are relatively new, but I prefer to use my Garmin 396 for weather, XM, etc. and would really like to have a place to plug it in. We'll probably have the plane in the shop soon for a Garmin 430 installation. Have the avionics shop install a 4-pin connector to power the 396, connect the audio output from the 396 to the audio panel, and the flight plan output from the 430 to the 396. That's what I have (except mine's a GNS480). They made up a special cable for the 396. One plug/cable does it all, no cables dangling all over the cockpit. Dave |

![]() "Dan" wrote in message oups.com... We haven't finalized purchase of the aircraft yet, but having flown Pipers for about 95% of my flight time to date, the downward visibility and shade offered by the high wing were definate pluses. I thought I wasn't going to like high wing, but it's not that bad actually... They have always been my preference for the exact same reason. I usually fly 172s because of the price and availibility in my area, but the 182 is actually my preference. I think you might find that high wing a bit addictive, I have. |

Doesn't it have one of those weird 4 pin ARINC plugs that you need an adapter for (a-lahttp://tinyurl.com/2erxr6) in the center pedestal? Well, I didn't see that, but I was looking on the right side, mainly. I'll have to check on the center panel. Does anyone know definatively if late 90s 182s have this connector? I believe it was optional. My flying club had a fleet of 3 C172S's ranging from 2000-2002 model year, and two of them had the 4-pin ARINC plug and one did not. Coincidently (or not?) the one without the 4- pin plug was the one with the single (rather than dual) axis KAP-140 and was also the oldest of the 3 (model year 2000). I suppose I can look in the manual... I don't think the manual will tell you, especially if it was optional equipment. Why not just ask the seller? |
