View Full Version : X-change Dittel for Becker
Phoenix

I currently have a Dittel mounted at the bottom of the stack. I would like to replace it with a Becker. Is there an "adaptor" to change the mounting hole from the square Dittel to the round Becker?

I've never seen such a thing, but it might not be too much work to 
simply remove the panel, remove all of the switches and instruments, and 
plug the square hole with fiberglass or carbon.Â* Then cut a new round 
hole and remount the things you removed.Â* Except for the cure time on 
the resin, it should be less than a day's work.
Good luck!

This will convert either an old rectangular radio hole, or
with the bigger plate convert an 80mm / 3.125" hole.
